Meet him by the road
There′s a dog, went running
Picking through spit out leaves a dog won't even touch
Meant to shoot that dog long ago
Just can′t leave that dog alone
Maria, carry a rifle
Maria carry a dog on her back
That dog is hit again
That slow dog is hit again
With his see-through skin
The kind of skin you can see through
He's shot again
He's shot again
He′s shot a-a-a-a-a-a
He′s shot again
He's shot again
He′s shot a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a
Heal me by a river
Man retires his wife says
But she was so sad and sick
His heart breaks in the mud
Thought I'd leave this world by 21
Couldn′t leave that dog alone
Maria, carry a rifle
Maria carry a dog on her back
That dog is hit again
That slow dog is hit again
With his see-through skin
The kind of skin you can see through
He's shot again
He′s shot again
He's shot a-a-a-a-a-a
He's shot again
He′s shot again
He′s shot a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a
Maria, carry a rifle
Maria carry a dog on her back
Maria carry you on her back
