Poor little house in the country,
18 dogs, an m-16 for company.
some boys commin over the horizon,
they'll be lookin for some hospitality.
Come on in boys the door's wide open,
but I'll warn you my dogs were born to win.
I'll take the greastest of pleasure,
in watchin you torn limb from limb.
Rumors startin down in the village,
those boys aint been heard of since that day.
But if anybody comes round askin questions,
Well I've got it worked out just what I'm gonna say.

Although I really dig the song, the whole "production" of it, l find very unique.... Ex husband, ex wife and, the daughter the two of them had... Putting out this hauntingly eerie yet, beautiful piece of work! Thnx RP crew! Delightful "first" again!

From the Dear Ms. Oakley, never truer words ever spoken.... Especially from a female! God bless her! Excellent guitar on a bizarre subject.
theres a sandy denny vibe

Wow... thanks for sharing....
A young Oklahoma mother shot and killed an intruder to protect her 3-month-old baby on New Year's Eve, less than a week after the baby's father died of cancer... As one of the men was going from door to door outside her home trying to gain entry, McKinley told ABC News that she quickly got her 12 gauge, went into her bedroom and got a pistol, put the bottle in the baby's mouth and called 911. When Martin kicked in the door and came after her with the knife, the teen mom shot and killed the 24-year-old. Police are calling the shooting justified.
Wow... thanks for sharing....

It's a song about a woman who, when people arrive looking for a nice cup of tea (and perhaps a crumpet), invites them in then feeds them to her dogs. Possibly after shooting them with her assault rifle, although I'm not clear on that part. I'm couldn't find her on tripadvisor, so that's about all the info I have.
A M-16 is a assault rifle.

If this was only a song about the "not-so" Proud Boys. Let the dogs loose.
And there was me, thinking a Hautboy was an oboe.

Such a sweet little ditty.
Jeepers that album title with a guy and 2 pretty girls on the cover. Is it just me !!!!!! Mind you he IS wearing a cowboy hat
Thanks RP ! After the set of amazing guitar you cap it with this - lovely mellow tune combined with amusingly violent lyrics 
"18 dogs, an m-16 for company"
Makes that whole #metoo thing pretty tame.

Meh. It's just a scene from Sandy Passage. "He was a Czech count, he played violin, and he was really very sweet. And Mother got rid of him in 15 MINUTES!"
Beautiful and scary!

This is an outstandingly beautiful song with some seriously Game of Thrones-level lyrics.
Some really good and some are like '' black the sky, weapons fly.save them for your race.In a race I'd vacuum all if I'd, but nature abhors vacuum, finally I inject a lttle dose of entropy. My welcome never been so absurd.

I too assumed the "boys coming over the horizon" weren't dropping by for tea, but rather had more unpleasant intentions.
I first heard this song some years ago, and figured the same. Woman living alone out in the boonies, a prime target for unwanted advances. It's pretty easy to write a backstory as to why she lives alone, and why she has some apprehension about strange men comin' 'round.
Nice doggie. Niiiice doggie...

I like the song but - creepy! Almost touched PSD
What a song.....nice lead in....sweet vocals... down home instrumentation, then BAM. 18 dogs all over you. I think I'll stay home.

excellent creepiness

Hmmm. I took her actions to be more defensive/reactive, not as a convenient way to get Alpo. She warns them supposedly...
"some boys coming over the horizon,
they'll be looking for some hospitality.
Come on in boys the door's wide open,
but I'll warn you my dogs were born to win.
I'll take the greatest of pleasure,
in watching you torn limb from limb."

Kind of a modern day (albeit 1999) murder ballad.
I'd never listened to the lyrics before. Hmmm. Yep.
Compares and would be on same playlist as song from Dixie Chicks about abusive husband named "Earl"...
In Texas...Famous court case of town bully-decades long bully- found shot multiple times in his truck..different calibers, different origin directions... No witnesses found... Town verdict "Some People Deserve Killin"...
Real life is a bit more abrupt and direct than TV and Nomenkultura mythos would have everyone believe... Walk softly, speak softly give respect and earn some by your efforts and over time...
TV-Hollywood distorts real relationships... Humans haven't evolved so very much in last 200 years...We are still the same creatures that wandered into the fading snow 40,000 years ago... same bodies, same genetics, same instincts (yes-these are real) and same reactions to forces that made us strong enough to survive wayback then...
Good Manners are a good place to start...Helping strangers for no expected reward also works...Being The Big Dog usually means that the pack will turn...

Jiminy, what a cheerful little ditty...
A song that fueled my indie music buying frenzy...thanks, Bill & Rebecca!
Great lyrics. I particularly enjoyed the... "Uuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh arrrrrrrrrrrr huuuuuuuu arrrrrrr ehhhhhhhhhhhh" bit
The beginning always reminds me on the stunning album "Ezekiel" by the basque band Itoiz. Someone know this one? Definitely worth a try, strongly recommended here!
The whole album is great listening as well...
Great tune - despite listening to RP a ton this was the first time I stopped and noticed this song. Thanks!
Lovely and grim at the same time. Great song.
f you like this song.....look up "Lucky Break" from the same album......sublime guitar and vocalsi

Only problem with this band was that they just produced the one album that I can find. All the tracks are good, but I like many others on the release more than this one. I really enjoy the way the guitars play off each other.

the band's name should be changed—-i would never have thought in a million years they would sound like this. Here in the US "Hank Dogs" would be a neo-rockabilly band (also, "bareback" means something here in slang it may not mean there)

18 Dogs and an M-16? What is this, Sarah Palin's campaign song?
"Speaking of Sarah Palin, she said she's a life-long member of the National Rifle Association. Which may explain why she's in favor of shotgun weddings." —Conan O'Brien

Well sir, that may be true for various reasons, but unless I missed it, the whole issue of "who let the dogs out?" has never really been clarified.

18 dogs is way too many. So is the number of times I've heard this on RP over the years.

So, who's Hank, and does he really dog? ;-)
I always picture a bunch of tough dudes riding up on horseback to a little cottage in the woods
...and if they come back, they come back sans genitalia and various limbs, and filled full of holes. Else they feed the dogs...

This song is amazing. The more I hear it, the more I love it.
Come on in boys the door's wide open,
but I'll warn you my dogs were born to win
I'll take the greatest of pleasure,
in watchin' you torn limb from limb
Love this song so much. The vocals are bone chilling. (In a good way!)
Love it!
very cool!
dogs=epic win.
Nice!!
