Date; likely 1965 during the Civil Rights era Singers: oooohhhh wah, ooooohhh wah! Gil: Look out for that dog! Hold it there, the dogs are comin, you better slow up my friend, the hose is ready and the water's runnin, we'll have to turn back again, (HOOK) we better meet back there by the church front door, we'll say a prayer then come back once more, it must be done no matter whats in store.....hyuhhn! Look out for That Dog! Better move son, the waters spurtin, and it dont feel good i found, it hit me twice and the truth is hurtin since it knocked me to the ground ...you know you kinda look like a brother of mine...he was jailed yesterday for carrying a sign, cause You must be twelve and He's only nine, Look out for that dog, Whyyyyyyyyyyy don't we stop, they sayyyyy....Thinggggs will work out somedayyyy, but you know something, a simple fact, cause we get nothing, unless we act, so usually then, that this is why, we live like mennnn, or like mennnn We'll diiiiiiieee, so brace yourselves, the Dogs are coming, but don't you raise a hand, with head held high we'll keep on a-hummin, that's how we'll make our stand, we took a vow that we must uphold, we borrowed from a story two-thousand years old, without hittin back, we'll reach our goalll huhn!, Look out for that Dog! Singers; Do Doo duh, Do Duh duh, Do Duh duhp, Duhp, Gil Bernal; Look out for that Dog! Singers; Do Doo duh, Do Duh duh, Do Duh, duhp, Duhp, Gil Bernal; C'mon now, Watch out for that Dog!

Now that my friends is some real music I wish there was bands like that around still today or even some newer groups doing this kind of music show a whole new generation for no the songs little Jack SoCal OPB
Good song. Hope people recognize the song is about civil right demonstrations in the South and the use of dogs and high pressure fire hoses against them.
Ok thanks for the explanation cause i'm french and i was not sure of the meaning of the song, but's now it's clear and it makes the song even greater for me ! Thanks again
