Dead Dog Memories Songtext

von The Bottle Rockets

I can remember like yesterday
My puppy got runned over by a Chevrolet
Daddy said, "He's gone son. You're going have to say goodbye."

Never could do it, no matter what he said
I refused to believe my dog was dead
Now I can see this happenin' all over again

It ain't lookin' like you and me
Are gonna ever be we
I ain't nothin' you'll ever want
That's plain to see
But me, whoa my
Oh I wonder why I
Can't ever let a dead dog lie

Ought to give up, but I just keep tryin'
Keep lookin' for that love light that just won't shine
Refuse to believe that you can't ever be mine

Guess it's true the things I do
Cause the pain that I go through
Dead dog memories don't fade away with time

It ain't lookin' like you and me
Are gonna ever be we
I ain't nothin' you'll ever want
That's plain to see
But me, whoa my
Oh I wonder why I
Can't ever let a dead dog lie

I can't ever let a dead dog lie
