Lyrics

SPOKEN OVER INTRO
You know, sometimes, when we refer to people...

VERSE
We call ’em lyin’ dogs and dirty dogs and low-down dogs
Junk-yard dogs and cheatin’ dogs and tricky dogs
We call ’em mad dogs and lowlife dogs, too
Two-faced dogs and mean dogs and “you dog, you”

CHORUS
(Yeah) They’re a real easy place to lay all the blame
But how would you like to be called such names?
Let’s show a little sensitivity; reconsider dog history
’Cause, in the end, dogs are your best friend

VERSE
Tom T. likes old dogs, and everybody loves Jake
Rin Tin Tin a friend; Lassie made no mistakes
Companion dogs and guard dogs keepin’ us alive
Military and police dogs helpin’ us survive

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/BRIDGE
So the next time you start to use a dog’s name in vain
Just remember, they helped me write this song

Repeat CHORUS (2x)/TAG
Yeah, in the end, dogs are your best friend
