I always wanted a blue tick hound
Instead I got a mutt from the pound
He peed on the carpet and chewed up my shoes
That's just what puppies do
We grew up together, became best friends
He'd follow me till the world ends
I count on him to be loyal and true
That dog ain't nothin' like you

If I loved you like I love my dog
I'd forgive everything you done
If I loved you like I love my dog
We'd still be havin' fun
You wouldn't have found your stuff in the yard
Life never woulda got so hard
My dog and me we're stuck like glue
But you and me..we're thru

When we first met I liked you a lot
My dog never thought you were that hot
He never liked you, he made that plain
I shoulda listened and saved some pain
You look at me, you tell me lies
I only see love in his eyes
I want love at the end of the day
So me and my dog we're walkin' away

I want a man who's loyal
I want a man who's true
I want a man to love me like my dog
And that ain't you
