Mike Frisbey and James Ryce are co-writers on this song. James also does the vocal.
Hi, my name is Roy Harris and I am a songwriter from Texarkana, Texas. I have been very fortunate to hook up with some pretty talented musicians and writers to colab with on my songs.
I am retired from the Navy and I love writing songs and the creative process it takes to produce a finished song. So come on in and sit a spell. Hope you enjoy our music. All of these songs are available for recording so if you are interested give me a shout. If the lady in the photo looks familiar, that's my buddy Marie Osmond.

DOGGONE
Lyrics: Mike Frisbey and Roy Harris
Music and Vocal: James Ryce
V1
I come home to an open door
my clothes was thrown out back
your car weren't in the driveway
all I seen was them tire tracks
I popped a top and I shook my head
went and hollered at old Blue
but he weren't in my recliner
'cause he'd gone and left with you
(Chorus)
Now, I'm home, you're gone, doggone, you done it again
Every time we break apart you up and leave with my best friend
Well I know you ain't worth much but on Blue I could depend
Now, I'm home, you're gone, doggone
V2
I don't care that you took off
I ain't losing sleep tonight
but I'd like to have me back my dog
who needs a naggin' wife?
I'm sure that I'll be missing
with these nights so long and cold
my very special someone
like old Blue for me to hold
(Chorus)
Now, I'm home, you're gone, doggone, you done it again
Every time we break apart you up and leave with my best friend
Well I know you ain't worth much but on Blue I could depend
Now, I'm home, you're gone, doggone
V3
Lord knows I ain’t perfect
I got me a fault or two
like the day you up and left me
I moved in with your sister Sue
Dang, she ain’t much to look at
If I squint hard it ain’t bad
but she got herself a fine dog
in old Buddy that chocolate lab
(Chorus)
Now, I'm home, you're gone, doggone, you done it again
Every time we break apart you up and leave with my best friend
Well I know you ain't worth much but on Blue I could depend
Now, I'm home, you're gone , doggone
Now I'm home, you're gone, doggone
(Tag)
It just ain't right to take a man's dog
