Backyard Dog Steve Brown, Doug Brown, Gerard Murphy

I'm a backyard dog. I'm a backyard dog. Chewin' on my bone.
I'm a backyard dog . I'm a backyard dog. Out here all alone.
I'm a backyard dog, my lady's as cold as stone,
She's locked outside the best lovin' she's known.
I'm a backyard dog and now I'm on my own.
When I woke this morning, I felt so strange.
I looked in the mirror. I could see the change.
My hair was long and shaggy. I didn't feel the same.
I buried my bone in the neighbor's yard,
Now I'm tied with a choker chain.
I'm a backyard dog. I'm a backyard dog. I got to get away.
I'm a backyard dog. I'm a backyard dog. I just can't stay.
I'm a backyard dog, and I got to be free.
When she tied me down, I just had to leave.
I'm a backyard dog, an' now I gotta go.
When I woke this morning, I felt so strange.
I could smell it in the air, it was time to change.
I can jump this fence. I can break this chain.
Gonna head for the country. Won't be a backyard dog again.
