Dead Dog Memories - The Bottle Rockets

I can remember like it was yesterday

When my puppy got run over by a Chevrolet

Daddy said 'he's gone son you’re gonna have to say goodbye'

I never could do it no matter what he said

I refused to believe my dog was dead

Now I can see this happenin' all over again

It ain’t lookin' like you and me are ever going to be we

I ain’t nothin' you’ll ever want, it’s plain to see

But me oh my, I wonder why I

Can’t ever let a dead dog lie

I ought to give up, but I keep tryin'

Keep lookin' for a lovelight that just won’t shine

I refuse to see that you can’t ever be mine

I guess it’s true, the things I do

Cause the pain that I go through

But dead dog memories don’t fade away with time

It ain’t lookin' like you and me are ever going to be we

I ain’t nothin' you’ll ever want, it’s plain to see

But me oh my, I wonder why I Can’t ever let a dead dog lie

I can’t ever let a dead dog lie
