You don't have to keep me on no chain
|
I come running when I hear you call my name
|
I must not be too hard to train
|
Took you no time at all
|
|
You don't really like none of my friends
|
You never really know just where I've been
|
When I slip up on your porch at 4AM
|
Like an old stray dog
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
You scratch me and you pet me
|
And you fight me
|
And even let me win
|
Now and then
|
You scold me you tease me
|
Then you hold me
|
And tell me I'm your friend
|
Making love to you babe
|
Ain't so hard
|
You treat me like a
|
Dog in the yard
|
|
Sometimes you kick at me when I'm down
|
It drives you crazy when I just lay around
|
No matter what you do I think I've found
|
The perfect home
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
You scratch me and you pet me
|
And you fight me
|
And even let me win
|
Now and then
|
You scold me you tease me
|
Then you hold me
|
And tell me I'm your friend
|
Making love to you babe
|
Ain't so hard
|
You treat me like a
|
Dog in the yard
|
