Living The Life Of A Dog

(album: Again - 1970)

I came home last night just a little late
I opened the door and she hit me with my supper plate
Can't see a whole lot through these two black eyes
But I could see enough to know I was sleeping with the dog tonight

Yeah I'm living the life of a dog
I get down on all fours when I walk
Scratching flees and sleeping on the ground
Running with the coldest noses in town
I'm living the life of a dog

Well I built me a little bitty house way out back
I had all intentions of using it before I passed
But I've been in the dog house so many times
I started to chasing cars
And when you wrote my name on the pole baby
That's going just a little too far

I'm living the life of a dog
I get down on all fours when I walk
Scratching flees and sleeping on the ground
Running with the coldest noses in town
I'm living the life of a dog

Well this dog business is getting out of hand
Why that woman's forgot that I'm really a man
Well I was upon the couch a scratching
I fell off and I hurt my neck
She loaded me up in the back of the truck
Said she was taking me to the vet

And I'm living the life of a dog
I get down on all fours when I walk
Scratching flees and sleeping on the ground
Running with the coldest noses in town
I'm living the life of a dog
Yes I'm living the life of a dog
