Ghost Town Dogs

He handed me a cold one
As soon as I walked through the door
We had some beer and country music
Like a thousand times before
And by the time I left The Boy's Room
The sad state I was in
Made me swear to him next day
I'd never do such a thing again

And I said, we can't keep livin' this way any longer
We're neither getting prettier nor getting younger
We should be waking up while there's still time
But we're sleeping like logs
We just walk these empty streets every night and day
And we'll bark at everything that will come our way
Can't you see what's become of us -
We're ghost town dogs

I got in my car and I hit the road
Wonderin' where my dreams might lead
As I passed his house I realized
I was short of gasoline
He had country music playing
And he offered me a beer
As I knocked it down he smiled and said:
Ain't no better beer 'round here

And I said, we can't keep livin' this way any longer
We're neither getting prettier nor getting younger
We should be waking up while there's still time
But we're sleeping like logs
We just walk these empty streets every night and day
And we'll bark at everything that will come our way
Can't you see what's become of us -
We're ghost town dogs

Yeah I said, we can't keep livin' this way any longer
We're neither getting prettier nor getting younger
We should be waking up while there's still time
But we're sleeping like logs
We just walk these empty streets every night and day
And we'll bark at everything that will come our way
Can't you see what's become of us
Can't you see what's become of us
Can't you see what's become of us
We're ghost town dogs
