Like a Dog Lyrics by The Emerald Armada

2017

[Verse 1]
It can be a good life
Though you never really did try
Always leaning on the back foot
Telling everyone you're a dreamer
So you just light up another cigarette
And you get real drunk
Telling everyone you ever met
That you were born to be someone
[Chorus]
Well I know you're loyal as a dog
And you've been through hell
But that's no excuse to lay down just yet
And all the while, ain't getting younger
And I see you looking around like you're owed something
Well I don't owe you a god damn thing
And all the while, ain't getting younger
[Verse 2]
So you just drift by, a chip on the shoulder
But you don't know why
Your compass is broke
And you're finding it hard to breathe
So you just give up
You find another hole and you get fucked up
Telling everyone you ever met
That you were born to be someone
[Chorus]
Well I know you're loyal as a dog
And you've been through hell
But that's no excuse to lay down just yet
And all the while, ain't getting younger
And I see you looking around like you're owed something
Well I don't owe you a god damn thing
And all the while, ain't getting younger
[Verse 3]
And yes I know, you're hell bent on your own
You're never gonna know, never gonna know it again
It's different when you're young
You're hard and wild and living like it never would end
But all this time it's the same old line
Same old story again
Over again
[Chorus]
Well I know you're loyal as a dog
And you've been through hell
But that's no excuse to lay down just yet
And all the while, ain't getting younger
And I see you looking around like you're owed something
Well I don't owe you a god damn thing
And all the while, ain't getting younger
[Chorus]
And l I know you're loyal as a dog
And you've been through hell
But that's no excuse to lay down just yet
And all the while, ain't getting younger
And I see you looking around like you're owed something
Well I don't owe you a god damn thing
And all the while, ain't getting younger
And all the while, ain't getting younger
And all the while, ain't getting younger
