Out here in the street

Is not where I wanna be

Under her feet

Just to be with her

The sheets are on the line billowing

We'll sleep with the smell of the breeze

The places I've been

Or someone I used to be



Out here in the street

Nothing grows

There's nothing that I don't

Already own

There's a big big world in there

And I want it all

From the tips of her hair

To the core



I'm just a dog

Training to be a man

I'm just a dog

Learning stuff I don't understand

But at night I howl

But at night I howl



And even though I hate it

I need a good bathing

A long untangling

'Cause my heart's aching

I'm just a dog

Training to be a man



I'm just a dog

But at night I howl

Just a dog

I'm just a dog
