Lyrics If I Were a Dog - Jason Gray

If I Were a Dog

If I were a dog
I could stare at your beauty for extended periods of time
You’d never even notice, nor would you prob’ly care
‘cause dogs are prone to stare
If I were a dog
I could walk with you down the city street
Without raising a suspicion
Perhaps you’d pity me
But I’d follow you home
You’d let me in and give me a milkbone
And I don’t know
If we can make it work
But I’m eager to give it a try
I’m open to the possibility, yeah
The life of a dog could be the life for me
If I were a dog
I’d have an excuse for all this drooling every time
You walked into the room
‘cause that’s just what we do
If you ever wonder why
But if you only knew
If I were a dog
I would not hesitate to sit at your feet
And beg for your affection
I’d use my big brown eyes
To get into your heart
Maybe we can go for walkies in the park
And I don’t know
If we can make it work
But I’m eager to give it a try
I’m open to the possibility, yeah
The life of a dog could be the life for me
It would prob’ly never work in the end
You’d get sick and tired of me biting all your boyfriends
And I’d always wanna sleep on the bed, yeah
Nananana nanananana
Wa-oooo
