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
