Full Cry is the name of a tree hound magazine.
This song is inspired by my father in law and his love for hunting raccoon.

A BLACK ANS TAN is a type of tree hound.

Verse One:
My black and tan
Watchful eye
Full of life
No wonder why
Mountain man
By her side
Heading out
On a half moon night

Chorus:
Listen to the sound
Wailing hound
My heart is pounding
I run to that sound
A star lit sky
My girl’s in flight
I run and run
To my dogs full cry

Verse two:
That black and tan
Waits faithfully
Another bandit
Hanging in a tree
I catch my breath
I stop and look out to the west
Hills more better
Than the place I left

Repeat Chorus:

Bridge:
I just love that hound
She’s gonna chase that bandit down
Wailin’ through the trees
Runnin’ free
My black and tan and me

Repeat Chorus:
