Lyrics Shelby Lynne

Shelby Lynne

Old Dog

I'm walking around here going crazy

Can't get it right in my mind

There's a demon within me pulling at me

I wish I could leave the past behind

I drink whiskey and try to forget it

But that's just makes the pain even more

Maybe if I started out running

I could find what I'm looking for.

They must be out there somewhere

Peace of mind, serenity

[Chorus:]

Somehow I'm just like an Old Dog

Searching for a porch to lie on

I'm lost and lonely for the answer

To the lies I've told to me for so long

I believe that highways hold solutions

That blacktop road can't be wrong

The bends and curves and unknown courses

See all the signs but never stop

Signals show themselves but I ignore then

Supposed to be some joy but there's not

[Repeat Chorus:]

Confusion leads to aggravation

Meanness is making me blind

What bothers me today keeps me wondering

Damn this bloody state of mind

Misery is around me

I'm tired but I can't sit still

Crawling in my skin my body's aging

I think I hear that dog on the Hill

They must be out there somewhere

Peace of mind, serenity

Somehow I'm just like a Old Dog

Searching for a porch to lie on

Somehow I'm just like an Old Dog

Searching for a porch to lie on.
