Lyric discussion by RtheCmatey 

Cover art for Master and a Hound lyrics by Gregory Alan Isakov

He wrote this song after being sent a snow globe as a gift. He has said that he doesn't really know what his songs are about as he writes them, so...it is up to our personal interpretation. This is, in my opinion, the way in which the greatest songwriters write their songs..with complete surrender to the creativity flowing through them. The greatest gift to the world.
