Dogs on the Run (Live) Lyrics

Campbell Petty

Well we come with what was on our back

Yeah when the leaves had died and all turned black

 

Back when the wind was cold and blew them 'round

 

When we laid our blankets on the ground

 

Yeah and I woke up feelin' hungry

 

Lookin' straight into the sun

And left a cold night on the ground

 

Like a dog on the run yeah

 

I fell overboard and washed up on the beach

 

Let the waves and sand roll over me

 

I was helped to be home of a young bleached blonde

 

Who said Honey I discovered early in life there's ways of getting

 

Anything I want some of us are different

 

It's just something in our blood there's no need for explanationsWe're just dogs on the run

 

It's just dogs on the run

 

Yes the room was painted blue and gray

 

All my meals were served on a silver tray

 

Yes she would laugh and light my cigarettes

She said Honey ain't it funny how a crowd gathers around

 

Anyone living life without a net

 

And how they'll beg you for the answer

But it won't ever be enough there's no way you could ever tell 'em

 

It's just dogs on the run

 

It's just dogs on the run

 

It's just dogs on the run baby

Like a dog on the run

 

Yeah like a dog like a dog

 

 

Like a dog on the run yeah
