Hey boss man you run this town
With fear and lies you bring a good man down
You treat em' like a dog, a fish on a hook
Man, you ain't nothing but a punk ass crook
When you beat a dog down, and you chain him to a tree
He's bound to bite you back, just you wait and see
If you try to break his will, and bring him to his knees
He's gonna bite you back, you better let that dog be.
Rust on the razor, blood on the whip
You do anything to tighten your grip
Take all you can, but it's never enough
Steal the last coin from a blind man's cup
When you beat a dog down, and you chain him to a tree
He's bound to bite you back, just you wait and see
If you try to break his will, and bring him to his knees
He's gonna bite you back, you better let that dog be.
Meats gonna spoil if you leave it in the heat
No bones about it, see the bodies in the street
You're cruel and you're heartless, you don't give a damn
C one-eyed jack with an iron hand
When you beat a dog down, and you chain him to a tree
He's bound to bite you back, just you wait and see
If you try to break his will, and bring him to his knees
He's gonna bite you back, you better let that dog be.
