Ben Folds Five - Dog lyrics

rate me

Well, my dog wears a path in the same line

and lately I'm thinking I might take his advice

Well, he sees through the fence and he thinks I'm free

Well, my cane and his shame look the same to me

All alone in a cage with a headrest

There's a thing I could get off of my chest

And I wanna wear the path that's true

And I wanna wear the path with you

Out in the snow, off the leash for years or more

I don't even know what it was I was waiting for

Well, maybe I barked up the wrong tree

That was then, now I'm back, won't you see me?

'cause I wanna wear the path that's true

And I wanna wear the path with you

Oh, it's true

I used to be afraid of growing old

and hanging 'round the same old place,

but I got older anyway

So won't you

(won't won't won't)

So won't you

(won't won't won't)

So won't you wash my fears away

Well, my dog wears a path and that's a good sign

(do do do do do, do-do do do)

'cause my dog wears a path in the same line

(same line)

Say goodbye to the cage with a headrest

'cause there's something to could get off of my chest

(get off of my chest)

by a house, go to work in the same car

feed the dog, put my teeth in the same jar,

Think I should tell you that

I wanna wear the path that's true

And I wanna wear the path with you

Yeah, I wanna wear the path with you
