You wanted something to save, you wanted something to tame
+
You wanted me to come running when you called my name
+
You wanted something to train, girl
+
That you could keep on a chain, girl
+
Ever since you laid eyes on me
+
You've been barking up the wrong damn tree
+
Girl, you tried to tighten up the collar
+
Clean me up, pull me up by the holler
+
That's one pill I ain't never gonna swallow
+
There's only one way this ends
+
Me running off, you on the porch crying
+
Girl, I don't guess I can blame you for trying
+
To fence me in, but that's your fault
+
Hell, you brought in this outside dog
+
I'm born to howl at the moon
+
You know I need me some room
+
For chasing me all night and then sleeping 'til noon
+
Gonna do what I do, girl
+
Hell naw, it ain't you, girl
+
Yeah, I've heard it before
+
And I know that it hurts
+
Baby, you ain't the first
+
Girl who tried to tighten up the collar
+
Clean me up, pull me up by the holler
+
That's one pill I ain't never gonna swallow
+
There's only one way this ends
+
Me running off, you on the porch crying
+
Girl, I don't guess I can blame you for trying
+
To fence me in, but that's your fault
+
Hell, you brought in this outside dog
+
This outside dog
+
Ever since you laid eyes on me
+
You've been barking up the wrong damn tree
+
Girl, you tried to tighten up the collar
+
Clean me up, pull me up by the holler
+
That's one pill I ain't never gonna swallow
+
There's only one way this ends
+
Me running off, you on the porch crying
+
Girl, I don't guess I can blame you for trying
+
To fence me in, but that's your fault
+
Hell, you brought in this outside dog
+
Yeah, this outside dog
