You Old Dog

You old dog This time I will turn my life around and do it right And this time I will turn my life around and do it, right? And this time And this time I really mean it Not like those other times When I said I really meant it that time You old dog, you old dog You old dog, you old dog You, you old dog You old dog, you I bet you'd love to learn Put them down Put them down Buried all my motivation in the yard Dig 'em up Why are all my aspirations cold and hard? Let me guess I watched all of my forevers last a month Maybe less And I've had it and I've had it And I watched the ring on my finger Constrict into a cuff Too spent when I went through the ringer Too complacent to take it off Take it off You old dog, you old dog You old dog, you old dog You, you old dog You old dog, you You old dog, you old dog You old dog, you old dog You, you old dog You old dog, you I bet you'd love to learn I bet you'd love to learn I bet you'd love to learn Something old, something new All my life I wanted to Something old, something new Something borrowed, something blue Something you old dogs Never could get From where you're tethered And yet I had the nerve to bark again If this is how I am, don't kid yourself If this is how I am, don't kid yourself If this is how I am, you can put me down You can put me down like the old dog I am
