Comeback Kid (That's My Dog)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, maybe it's the common curse
Maybe things get bad before they get worse
I don't wanna become someone
Who can't live up to what already done
Don't keep it just to figure it out
When it rains and pours, and then it runs out
I was crying on the bathroom floor
And just when I thought I could take no more
Well, here comes a comeback
The kid is back, is back on track
And there goes my hero
He's an underdog, he's coming out on top
And come on, come on back, that's my dog
It was a park of the trailer park
She went whistling through the big yard
She came to raise the dead
And I was a stain on her unmade bed
I found a lover and then I lost myself
And now I'm nowhere, she's somewhere else
And the boys with the brown, skinny legs
Said you're on and on, she sees but I say
Hey, here comes a comeback
The kid is back, is back on track
And there goes my hero, he's an underdog
He's coming out on top
And everybody loves a comeback
So come on back, now, comeback, comeback
Everybody loves the underdog
Singing that's my dog, that's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Hey
I've never been laid so low
Never been laid so low, low, low, low
Why was I the last to know?
Why was I the last to know?
Hear the words, I've never been laid so low
Never been laid so low, low, low, low
Don't let me be the last to know
Don't let me be the last to know
Here comes a comeback
The kid is back, is back on track
And everybody loves a comeback
So come on back, now, comeback, comeback
Everybody loves the underdog
Singing that's my dog, that's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, that's my dog
That's my, that's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
That's my dog
