Runaway Dog Lyrics

When I was a kid, people said

I looked like a runaway dog

I ran across the fields and rivers

And came home dirty, blooded

And soaked to the bone

When I messed up

And someone

Chased me screaming

When I messed up

And someone

Chased me screaming

I waved and disappeared

Run dog, run dog

Hurry to go home

Return to the place

Where you belong

Another day is coming

And life is waiting

On the road

Of the runaway dog

Once for fun i was playing

With a rooster

Trying to crow

Louder than him

But when he came to peck me

I was afraid

And ran away

From the chicken coop

Country life is something

Very close

Country life is something

Very close

To truth and freedom

Run dog, run dog

Hurry to go home

Return to the place

Where you belong

Another day is coming

And life is waiting

On the road

Of the runaway dog

Waiting for the road

Run dog, run dog

Hurry to go home

For your mom

Is making meatballs

Run dog, run dog

Go where you belong

You know that life

Is meeting you

On the road

Yeah

Run, run, dog

Run, run, dog

Another day is coming

And life is waiting

On the road

Of the runaway dog
