"Old Dog" lyrics - SHELBY LYNNE

SHELBY LYNNE
"Old Dog"
(S. Lynne)

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

[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.
