Dogs On The Run Lyrics - Southern Accents - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Well we come with what was on our backs 

Yeah, when the leaves had died and all turned black 

Back when the wind was cold and blew them 'round 

When we laid our blankets on the ground 

Yeah and I woke up feelin' hungry 

Lookin' straight into the sun, and left a cold night on the ground 

Like a dog on the run 

I fell overboard and washed up on the beach 

Yes, let the waves and sand roll over me 

I was helped to the home of a young bleached blonde 

Who said, "honey I discovered early in life there's ways of getting 

Anything I want, some of us are different 

It's just something in our blood, there's no need for explanations 

We're just dogs on the run"

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

The room was painted blue and grey 

All my meals were served on a silver tray 

Oh she would laugh, and light my cigarettes 

She said, "honey, ain't it funny how a crowd gathers around 

Anyone living life without a net? 

And how they'll beg you for the answers 

But it won't ever be enough, there's no way you could ever tell 'em 

It's just dogs on the run
