Ben Folds Five
Dog
Well, my dog wears a path in the same line
And lately I'm thinking I might take his advice
Well, he sees through the fence and he thinks I'm free
Well, my cane and his shame look the same to me
All alone in a cage with a headrest
There's a thing I could get off of my chest
And I wanna wear the path that's true
And I wanna wear the path with you
Out in the snow, off the leash for years or more
I don't even know what it was I was waiting for
Well, maybe I barked up the wrong tree
That was then, now I'm back, won't you see me?
'cause I wanna wear the path that's true
And I wanna wear the path with you
Oh, it's true
I used to be afraid of growing old
And hanging 'round the same old place
But I got older anyway
So won't you
(won't won't won't)
So won't you
(won't won't won't)
So won't you wash my fears away
Well, my dog wears a path and that's a good sign
(do do do do do, do-do do do)
'cause my dog wears a path in the same line
(same line)
Say goodbye to the cage with a headrest
'cause there's something to could get off of my chest
(get off of my chest)
By a house, go to work in the same car
Feed the dog, put my teeth in the same jar
Think I should tell you that
I wanna wear the path that's true
And I wanna wear the path with you
Yeah, I wanna wear the path with you
