Warren Zevon - Rottweiler Blues Lyrics
Got a Glock in the bedside table
Machine gun leaning by the bedroom door
Kevlar vest in the closet
Well, I wear it when I go to the store
Rustling in the hedge
Faces at the peephole
Footsteps on the ledge
If you come calling
He'll be mauling with intent to maim
Don't knock on my door
If you don't know my Rottweiler's name
Halogen lights in the driveway
One hundred pounds of unfriendly persuasion
Sleeping on the Florida porch
Slackers in the market
Bangers in the mall
Skinheads on the golf course
Hunting for their balls
If you come calling
He'll be mauling with intent to maim
Don't knock on my door
If you don't know my Rottweiler's name
Well, he's dreaming about an intruder or two
And the promise of burglar blood
He's yearning to chew on a gangster tattoo
And to hear the proverbial sickening thud
Shadows on the window
Rustling in the hedge
Faces at the peephole
Footsteps on the ledge
If you come calling
He'll be mauling with intent to maim
Don't knock on my door
If you don't know my Rottweiler's name

Warren Zevon Rottweiler Blues Comments
I LOVE IT! Since 1998 when I discovered Warren.. 18 years young..
love it
I lived for some years in South Florida--in fact, it was during that time I had the phenomenal good fortune to meet the Mutineer himself in a small bookstore--and I frequently met my co-workers at a restaurant called the Mutineer... yep, the very one Warren saw which gave him the name of this amazing, criminally undermarketed gem of an album. The title song alone has been covered by many of the greats in rock and roll, which proves two things: one, that the hotshots at Zevon's label were musical morons, and two, as Warren himself so aptly observed... "Even A Dog Can Shake Hands". My greatest frustration, that of the fact that this incredible musician, poet and philosopher still doesn't receive the recognition he so richly deserved, and STILL deserves won't bother me too much longer. Soon, I'll be able to tell him again to his face how much his music changed my life. Rock the Pillars of Heaven, WZ! I'll be seeing you soon. Kat Harper
