Only A Dog, Bootleg Tapes

Only A Dog, Bootleg Tapesjade says (01 Apr '11)
I have no idea why I post this stuff here, cause I don't think anyone really much cares... but here it goes anyway~
Only A Dog, on the bootleg tapes (one of the last songs on them) is half by Kid Rock and half by someone else I think it might be someone named Tim Authier, who also might of written it. Can anyone confirm this?
Also, it is very hard for me to hear the other guys words. Anyone here want to take a crack at it:

ok, I corrected the credits and those lyrics. thank you again, John!
If you do see this again, is the second verse right? I think I'm missing at least one word there:
Only a dog I'll bark, a master I may need
Only a circle, where the weakest I'll(?)
they'll push and he can spit, frozen in her eyes
I'll be the father to a muse, we sympathize
Jade the lyric stalker...love it :-) And that you carry a little black book...
I think you are more appreciated than you know Jade, when I pop on here and see the stuff that you have dug up, I am always impressed. I'm quite certain it takes a lot of work, and patience.
As for these lyrics, wow...(in a good way of course:-)
John,
THANK YOU! I love this song and I have been trying to get correct lyrics and credit for it for months now. (I even tried to contact a Tim Authier on FB, but it may have been another Tim entirely because I never heard back!)
I will absolutely change the writing credits, and the lyrics. I am at work right now, but will do it later tonight as soon as I can.
Thank you very much for taking the time to set the record straight! Its a beautiful song.
If you still are involved in the music world, please feel free to send me that information as well... for my own interest as well as anything that I can put on the website to point people in the right direction.
you can email me direction through my lyrics website: http://www.kidrocklyrics.net/contact.htm
Also the actual lyrics were.
Swim like a fish as her eyes become the ocean.
Our destine diver her voice currents in the sea.
Unshaved world, untraveled, virgin, unforgotten,
and with a fist witness the murder of a dream.
Things just keep getting stranger
I've got a witness to creation
Climb in your mountains as I'm drowning in your whole.
The song "Only a Dog" was written by Tim Authier and myself (John Tenney), it was recorded and released on our band's 7". Our band was Smokehouse and we were friends with Bob at the time he performed this song.
LOL, black book!
no, I never got close enough to KR to ask anything... I did carry my little black book full of lyric questions around with me the whole time, though, just in case! lol :-)
Hi Jade,
Did you get to ask Kid your lyric questions? Was thinking about you cruisers all weekend. I KNOW you had a great time! Love the "lyric stalker" title.
thank you Blue, Zeke & Shaggy! I really appreciate the support!
I found Tim on Facebook, still hoping for a response. but its been a while, not sure if it'll happen.
I'm still recovering from the cruise (!!) but I'll be getting back to work on these lyrics shortly. its lovely to know that people understand the obsession! :-)
JADE, GOD BLESS YOU IN YOUR EPIC UNDERTAKING!
ALL I CAN SAY IS CALL HIM HE STILL LIVES IN ROYAL OAK AND IS LISTED!
I'M SURE HE'LL KNOW THE EXACT LYRICS!
TIM "TIM DOG" AUTHIER IS THE NICKNAME KR GAVE HIM
AND WAS A SINGER/GUITAR PLAYER.
I BELIEVE AROUND THE TIME WHEN THEY BOTH LIVED IN ROYAL OAK, MICHIGAN!
YOUR INFORMATION IS MOST LIKELY ACCURATE!
@Jade, really, your so Genuine with these thoughts, I totally Like these post, figure this as I ride down highways and byways, your putting the tracks plain, helps to sing Kid's songs better, even though I can't carry a tune in a bucket, lol and my teens say shut up please, Thanks Jade, yu Rock!!!!
TIM DOG IS A OLD FRIEND OF KR. I KNOW THIS FOR A FACT AS I AM A FRIEND OF HIS BROTHER. I KNOW HE JAMMED WITH HIM IN THE EARLY DAYS, PRE '98.
Jade, again, thanks for all your efforts on the lyrics. So important, historically,o we'd all be guessin' to Louie Louie!
:-) thanks Cheryl! I'll be getting back to it soon, once I recover from the cruise! thanks for your support.
(and yes, I did get confirmation that it was Tim Authier, but I can't get him to respond to my request for help with his lyrics. LOL I'm becoming a weird lyrics stalker...)
I care and thank you
