lyrics

Well, girl I wanna be your dog
But I won't roll over no more
Got me tail 'tween my legs
And begging on the floor
Maybe I shit the bed
Don't mean I gotta sleep outdoors
Girl I wanna be your dog
But I won't roll over no more

Girl I know I'm just a mutt
And you took me in as a stray
Gave all the love I had to give
Still neutered me anyway
I just wanna sit on your lap
That's why I hump your leg all day
Maybe if you showed some love
I wouldn't run away

'Cos all this time I've been yearning
For your love to start burning
And my back has been breaking
Tryna please you
I swear to God this could be doggone good
But you're a bitch and that's understood

Girl I wanna be your dog
But I won't roll over no more
All the tricks I do for you
Are becoming a mighty chore
All your berating's getting grating
I might sneak out the dog door
Girl I wanna be your dog
But I won't roll over no more

Girl I wanna be your dog
But I'm tired of all the pain
Been waiting by the window
For you to come home all day
But when you do, you throw your shoe
And I smell another guy's spray
Girl I wanna be your dog
But I'm seeing there's no way

'Cos all this time I've been yearning
For your love to start burning
And my back has been breaking
Tryna please you
I swear to God I'm better off alone
So come on girl, throw this dog a bone
