Lyrics for Junkyard Dog

Stayed by your side, so faithfully I could've worn a sign, said beware of me I never wandered, no I never strayed And nobody got by, when I was at the gate But you could mesmerize, with a barrel of fire Go sneak another man, through a tear in the wire Maybe what we had, was just a pile of old tires And I'm a junkyard dog A junkyard dog, at the end of your chain Junkyard dog, howlin' out in vain Fighting for a love you didn't care about Protecting something, you could live without Thought I was the king of your castle, turns out I'm just a junkyard dog A junkyard dog You left me alone, for hours on end And I was true to you, again and again You had me wagging and willing, for whatever you could spare I took what you were giving, and I followed you anywhere Like a junkyard dog, at the end of your chain Junkyard dog, howlin' out in vain Fighting for a love you didn't care about Protecting something, you could live without Thought I was the king of your castle, turns out I'm just a junkyard dog A junkyard dog Don't' be surprised to come home and see A collar and a chain where I used to be You got to find another fool to take the place of me And be a junkyard dog, at the end of your chain Junkyard dog, howlin' out in vain Fighting for a love you didn't care about Protecting something, you could live without Thought I was the king of your castle, turns out I'm just a junkyard dog A junkyard dog A junkyard dog A junkyard dog A puppy dog A mighty dog Atomic dog (woof woof) A filthy dog A nasty dog (woah) Baby, baby, baby Baby, baby, baby (woof woof woof)
