[Intro]
One, two, three, four, one

[Verse 1]
Mister you've been caught at last
Chasing dogs in the moonlight
(This man committed a sin)
(This man, he never can win)
Mister you've got one more chance
If you catch the hound when the sun shines
(This man committed a sin)
(This man, he never can win)

[Chorus]
And it's all gone wrong
Night is the time for chasing the one-eyed hound
And it's all been tried before
Night is the time for chasing the one-eyed hound

[Verse 2]
Have you seen the one-eyed hound?
Tell me where he's going
(This man committed a sin)
(This man, he never can win)
Every place that I have been
No-one else has seen him
(This man committed a sin)
(This man, he never can win)
[Chorus]
And it's all gone wrong
Night is the time for chasing the one-eyed hound
And it's all been tried before
Night is the time for chasing the one-eyed hound

[Verse 3]
Everybody's telling me
Exactly where to go
(This man committed a sin)
(This man, he never can win)
People call and people talk
But they don't reach agreement
(This man committed a sin)
(This man, he never can win)

[Chorus]
And it's all gone wrong
Night is the time for chasing the one-eyed hound
And it's all been tried before
Night is the time for chasing the one-eyed hound
