You call me a dog well thats fair enough
'Cause it ain't no use To pretend youre wrong
When you call me out I cant hide anymore
I have no disguise you cant see through
Well you say it's bad luck to have fallen for me
Well what can I do to make it good for you
You wore me out like an old winter coat
Trying to be safe from the cold
But when its my time
To throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all
You call me a dog
You say that I'm low cause I've slept on the floor
And out in the woods with the badgers & wolves
You threw me out cause I went digging for gold
And I came home with a hand of coal
But when its my time
To throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all
And when its my time to call your bluff
I'll call you beautiful or leave it alone
You call me a dog
Well thats fair enough
It doesnt bother me as long as you know
Bad luck will follow you
If you keep me on a leash and you drag me along
But when its my time
To throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all
And throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful or leave it alone
You call me a dog
I'll call you beautiful or leave it alone
