Sometimes I Want to Be a Dog (A Cowboy Billy Herron Original) by Cowboy Billy Herron published on 2021-05-21T16:47:21Z International Songwriting Competition Semi-Finalist Song (2021)!!@! Sometimes I Want to Be a Dog By Cowboy Billy Herron (Cowboy sends many thanks to the great Brent Funkhouser for backing vocals and piano. Check out Brent's music at brentfunkhouser.com and all streaming platforms.) Sometimes I want to be a dog Lay around the house all day, like a lump upon a log. Go out in the yard to pee, it really ain’t that hard to see Why a dog’s life … that’s the life for me. Sometimes I want to be a dog. Forget the way you left me and treated me so wrong. Not think about you all the time, go sniff another dog’s behind. A dog’s life yeah that’s the life for me. Oh, I want to be a dog. Nothing to do, nowhere to go, no one to lead me on. Turn my tail on memories of you and all we done. Sometimes I want to be a dog. Oh lord, please let me be a dog. Wouldn’t have to work or watch the clock. I’d curl up in my little round bed, oblivious to those words you said. A dog's life, that's the life for me. Oh, I want to be a dog. Nothing to do, nowhere to go, no one to lead me on. Lift my leg on memories of you and all we done. Sometimes I want to be a dog. A doggie’s life is easy. A doggie’s life is free. A doggie’s got no worries except for the occasional flea. In a doggie’s life the fact you’re gone wouldn’t mean a thing to me. Sometimes I want to be a dog. Wouldn't it be nice to be a dog. Chase a ball and go out for a walk. And if you come to visit my owner, you wouldn’t know it was me. And I’d jump up and hump your leg and be as happy as I could be. Yeah, I’d jump up and hump your leg and be as happy as I could be. Oh God, please let me be a dog.
