Artist/Band: Tom Petty
Lyrics for Song: Dogs On The Run
Lyrics for Album: Southern Accents [1985]



Well we come with what was on our backs

Yeah, when the leaves had died and all turned black

Back when the wind was cold and blew them 'round

When we laid our blankets on the ground

Yeah and I woke up feelin' hungry

Lookin' straight into the sun, and left a cold night on the ground

Like a dog on the run



I fell overboard and washed up on the beach

Yes, let waves and sand roll over me

I was helped to be home of a young bleached blonde

Who said honey I discovered early in life there's ways og getting

Anything I want, some of us are different

It's just something in our blood, there's no need for explanations

We're just dogs on the run



The room was painted blue and grey

All my meals were served on a silver tray

Oh she would laugh, and light my cigaretts

She said honey ain't it funny how a crowd gathers around

Anyone living life without a net?

And how they'll beg you for the answer

But it won't ever be enough, there's no way you could ever tell 'em

It's just dogs on the run
