DOG AT THE DOOR Lyrics by Alli Walker
White picket, gold ticket, good living, god willing yeah we had it all
Every minute, we were in it, I’ll admit it, I was waiting at your beckon call
But no more crying in the kitchen
Late nights, lonely in the living room
Lord knows what you’re getting into
And guess what, I do too
You had it made I was loyal to the bone
But when you play with me hey baby watch me go
When you leave me in the rain like that
Ain’t a damn chance that I run right back
That’s what you get for leaving me alone
Ain’t nothing left but a wreck when you get home
I ain’t gonna be here waiting anymore
I ain’t gonna be your dog at the door
You thought I wouldn’t notice
You thought you snuck right by
But I can smell her on your collar almost every night
Did you think I would beg you stop
Did you think I would stay
You had it made I was loyal to the bone
But when you play with me hey baby watch me go
When you leave me in the rain like that
Ain’t a damn chance that I run right back
That’s what you get for leaving me alone
Ain’t nothing left but a wreck when you get home
I ain’t gonna be here waiting anymore
I ain’t gonna be your dog at the door
No No
Dog at the door
I ain’t gonna be your dog at the door
I’m all bite when I bark
I’m all fight with a broken heart
I’m all bite when I bark
I’m all fight with a broken heart
You had it made I was loyal to the bone
But when you play with me hey baby watch me go
When you leave me in the rain like that
Ain’t a damn chance that I run right back
That’s what you get for leaving me alone
Ain’t nothing left but a wreck when you get home
I ain’t gonna be here waiting anymore
I ain’t gonna be your dog at the door
At the door
I ain’t gonna be your dog at the door
