Dog Day Afternoon Lyrics - Tough All Over - Shelby Lynne

Happiness hit her like a train on a track 

Coming towards her stuck still no turning back 

She hid around corners and she hid under beds 

She killed it with kisses and from it she fled 

With every bubble she sank with her drink 

And washed it away down the kitchen sink 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are done 

The horses are coming 

So you better run 

Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father 

Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers 

Leave all your loving, your loving behind 

You cant carry it with you if you want to survive 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are done 

Can you hear the horses? 

'Cause here they come 

And i never wanted anything from you 

Except everything you had and what was left after that too, oh 

Happiness hit her like a bullet in the head 

Struck from a great height by someone who should know better than that 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are done 

Can you hear the horses? 

'Cause here they come 

Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father 

Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers 

Leave all your loving, your loving behind 

You cant carry it with you if you want to survive 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are done 

Can you hear the horses? 

'Cause here they come 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are done 

The horses are coming 

So you better run
