Common Hound sayings

[Melanie Hampton]

How about

"My dogs are tired" (feet) my grandpa used to say that..

[david]

from a song about someone who stole the guys girl:
"...he's a bird..."
"...he's a dog..."
"...he's a bird dog."
Might have been a Johnny Horton tune.
From another Horton tune:
Ran so fast the hounds couldn't catch em (on down the mississippi to the gulf of mexico)

[Mydixiehound]

Johnny Cash song,

"But they'll laugh at you in Jackson, and I'll be dancin' on a Pony Keg.
They'll lead you 'round town like a scalded hound,
With your tail tucked between your legs,
Yeah, go to Jackson, you big-talkin' man."

[Farm Boy]

Hank Williams Sr - Howlin At The Moon

Some friends of mine asked me to go out on a huntin' spree
'Cause there ain't a hound dog in this state
That can hold a light to me
I ate three bones for dinner today, then I tried to tree a 'Coon

--------------------------

I'd quit my doggish ways
You Dirty Dog
Hottier than a hound on a fresh coon track
Dog Gone Lonesome

[Liz ODell]

I've heard a few folks over the years say "well, it sure has got me treed" when they were encountering a difficulty with something...and these weren't hound people. Also how about every time someone says "I'm game", did you know that is a reference to the gameness of pit bulls.
