[Verse 1]

I've watched the same old sunset

On a million different towns

I've howled at the moon all night

And I've slept on the ground

Seems like I've been everywhere

And nowhere are all the same

I've been called a thousand things

But nobody knows my name

[Chorus]

I'm just an ol' stray dog

Out here on the road again

I ain't got a prayer

I ain't got a friend

And it's been so long

I spend half my life just runnin'

And the other half gettin' home

[Verse 2]

I've had somebody take me in

Morе than a time or three

But every timе the new wears off

I'm back out on the street

And when it comes to free

Man, what you see is what you get

If I ain't a four-leg rammin' jackal

I'll be a son of a bitch

[Chorus]

I'm just an ol' stray dog

Out here on the road again

I ain't got a prayer

I ain't got a friend

And it's been so long

I spend half my life just runnin'

And the other half gettin' home

[Bridge]

And maybe someday I might just hang it up

They ever build a fence so high that I can't jump

[Chorus]

I'm just an old stray dog

Out here on the road again

I ain't got a prayer

I ain't got a friend

And it's been so long

I spend half my life just runnin'

And the other half gettin' home

[Outro]

Gettin' home

I've watched the same old sunset

On a million different towns

I've howled at the moon all night

And I've slept on the ground
