[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
