[Verse 1]

I don't fit in your box

That's just too bad, man

I don't apologize for who I ain't or who I am

I don't give a damn 'bout your give a damn

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm a little more stray dog

A little found, little lost cause

My wins have been hard fought

I don't bark, I just bite

Put my money on the dark horse

Put my faith in the good Lord

Pray to Him I get one more day

When I lay my head down at night

[Chorus]

You can padlock the door, tie me up on the porch

Chain me up, I'll break that chain, y'all

I'm the wild and free kind of breed

That'll always be

Running with the stray dogs

[Verse 2]

I've been know to howl at a full moon

Ain't scared to show my teeth

If you think I'll ever back down

You're barking up the wrong tree

You better watch that ass

When I pin these ears back

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm a little more stray dog

A littlе found, little lost cause

My wins have been hard fought

I don't bark, I just bitе

Put my money on the dark horse

Put my faith in the good Lord

Pray to Him I get one more day

When I lay my head down at night

[Chorus]

You can padlock the door, tie me up on the porch

Chain me up, I'll break that chain, y'all

I'm the wild and free kind of breed

That'll always be

Running with the stray dogs

[Post-Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, stray dogs

[Bridge]

Been asked my whole life what I'm running from

With that out crowd motley crew

But it ain't about what I'm running from

It's about what I'm running to

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm a little more stray dog

A little found, little lost cause

My wins have been hard fought

I don't bark, I just bite

Put my money on the dark horse

Put my faith in the good Lord

Pray to Him I get one more day

When I lay my head down at night

[Chorus]

You can padlock the door, tie me up on the porch

Chain me up, I'll break that chain, y'all

I'm the wild and free kind of breed

That'll always be

Running with the stray dogs
