lyrics

I'm no child.
I've been on my own.
I was taught to fish by my daddy and
To always bring the catch home.

I've been around this fine world,
But I've got a long way to go.
Far away I was told I've got to stand up
If I want to drive the point home.

Ooh, you've got to know where you're going to.
Aah, a body's got nothing to do but move.

Got myself a set of goals and aspirations
And I'm on a path that I chose.
Though I stray more often than not,
I still know where it goes.

Ooh, you've got to know where you're going to.
Aah, take a little piece of home with you.

Ooh, you've got to know where you're going to.
Aah, these dusty bones have got some youth.

Watch out Monkey! Be Careful Toxic Snake!
I'm climbing your mountain and I'm swimming in your lake.

Ooh, you've got to know where you're going to.

Dog Is Blue Hamilton, Ontario

Hamilton's Dog Is Blue is a garage-folk duo made up of Paul Watson, principal songwriter and cookie-tin pedal enthusiast, and Laura Heaney, purveyor of ghost-noises and multi-instrumentalist extraordinaire.

Together they ramble around proudly with all the jangly toys of a tickle-trunk and the surefooted bravado of travelling snake-oil salesmen. ... more
