Traduction de l'annotation anglophone de driesvho:

Stro the 89th key copie le premier vers de ce couplet à partir du classique de Common, “I Used to Love H.E.R.”

De la même manière que Common, il parle de sa relation avec une femme, mais au fil du couplet, il devient clair qu'il ne s'agit que d'une métaphore et qu'il parle du Hip Hop (voire de la musique).

Eh bien, tu vois, le soleil se couchait lentement
Et mon vieux chien de chasse s'est juste assis et a pleuré


Les paroles s'appuient lourdement sur un champ lexical qui rappelle fortement le blues de diverses époques.

Hound Dog est le titre d'un classique du blues chanté par Big Mama Thornton, à la fin duquel elle imite un chien qui aboie.

Le fait de parler d'un chien qui, semblerait-il, s'est subitement assis pour pleurer rappelle le “Mr Bojangles” de Jerry Jeff Walker, dont le chien est “mort d'un coup”.

“His dog up and died, he just up and died”
