Lyrics
When you rolled down the highway
You said that you?d return
With the sun on your shoulders
And money to burn
You walked out of my life and into your own
Well it?s a dog?s life, darlin, and we all chase the bone
Well I sit at my table
In an old two room flat
And the gypsy downstairs
Says you?re never coming back
Oh, but I light the candle, and I hold my own
Cause it?s a dog?s life darlin, and we all chase the bone
There?s a broken down trailer
About a mile up the road
They say the woman who lives there
Well she?s bitter, and she?s cold
Because she waited and waited and waited
For things that just don?t come
She says it?s a dog?s life darlin, and I wish it were done
Yeah, she says it?s a dog?s life darlin, and I wish it were done
