Beggin' Like a Dog
Who's the one that's always there
Who do you know that will always care
Who can you count on when you're all alone
Who sits here begging like the dog for a bone
Well, I'll be damned if that don't sound like me
Even though I know it ought not be
I can't seem to help myself
I'm just an open book on your back shelf
So why do you keep on using me
Like a worn-out rug you bought on a spree
I know I ain't what I used to be
So why do you keep using me
If you had a heart, you'd loosen the noose
You'd cut the strings and turn me loose
My heart would break quickly and I could move on
And stop chasing you knowing you're gone
I'll be damned if I let this happen again
I tell myself every time this storm comes blowing in
But we both know I can't say no
So why do you insist on treating me so
Who's the one that's always there
Who do you know that will always care
Who can you count on when you're all alone
Who sits here begging like the dog for a bone
...
If you had a heart, you'd loosen the noose
You'd cut the strings and turn me loose
My heart would break quickly and I could move on
And stop chasing you knowing you're gone
Why do you keep on using me
Like a worn-out rug you bought on a spree
I know I ain't what I used to be
So why do you keep using me
If you had a heart, you'd loosen the noose
You'd cut the strings and turn me loose
My heart would break quickly, and I could move on
And stop chasing you knowing your gone
Who do you know that will always care
Who can you count on when you're all alone
Who sits here begging like the dog for a bone
Well, I'll be damned if that don't sound like me
Even though I know it ought not be
I can't seem to help myself
I'm just an open book on your back shelf
So why do you keep on using me
Like a worn-out rug you bought on a spree
I know I ain't what I used to be
So why do you keep using me
If you had a heart, you'd loosen the noose
You'd cut the strings and turn me loose
My heart would break quickly and I could move on
And stop chasing you knowing you're gone
I'll be damned if I let this happen again
I tell myself every time this storm comes blowing in
But we both know I can't say no
So why do you insist on treating me so
Who's the one that's always there
Who do you know that will always care
Who can you count on when you're all alone
Who sits here begging like the dog for a bone
...
If you had a heart, you'd loosen the noose
You'd cut the strings and turn me loose
My heart would break quickly and I could move on
And stop chasing you knowing you're gone
Why do you keep on using me
Like a worn-out rug you bought on a spree
I know I ain't what I used to be
So why do you keep using me
If you had a heart, you'd loosen the noose
You'd cut the strings and turn me loose
My heart would break quickly, and I could move on
And stop chasing you knowing your gone
