Lyrics Dog On A Chain - Emitt Rhodes

Dog On A Chain

«You ain’t no good», I hear her say
Under her breath as she turns away
«I'll take the car i’ll take the house
I’ll take the kids and then i’ll turn you out»
I was led along like a dog on a chain
Out in the cold, out in the rain
I was led along like a dog on a leash
I did as told while she did as she pleased
I was led along like a dog on my knees
She berates me, calls me crazy
Certifiably insane
Once she praised me, now she hates me
I can’t see how I have changed
I was led along like a dog on a chain
Out in the cold, out in the rain
I was led along like a dog on a leash
I did as told while she did as she pleased
I was led along like a dog on my knees
Love’s not easy love’s not kind
It only works when you’re half blind
Don’t be the only one to sacrifice
Don’t be the only one to compromise
Standing frozen my mouth open
Though I did what they say
Can’t conceive it or believe it
Though it’s just as plain as day
I was led along like a dog on a chain
Out in the cold, out in the rain
I was led along like a dog on a leash
I did as told while she did as she pleased
I was led along like a dog on my knees
