I got a boss that likes to ride my back Down at the factory Somebody's always riding my bumper Honking when the light turns green I loaned my best buddy money I ain't seen him since He avoids me like the plague Got a message from my girlfriend She met a new man and married him yesterday The more I'm around some people The more I like my dog Now I don't understand when folks come to see me Why he tries to run' em off So I took the chain from around his neck And put a beware sign on the lawn 'Cause the more I'm around some people The more I like my dog I got caught in the middle of he said, she said Something I didn't say My landlord told me my rent was going up Well that's a bill I just can't pay My neighbor's trying to sue me He don't know there's nothing to me My brother complains about the music I play Just last week I got car-jacked Now I'm thumbing to work again The more I'm around some people The more I like my dog Man's best friend until the end He's never done me wrong So I took the chain from around his neck And put a beware sign on the lawn 'Cause the more I'm around some people The more I like my dog So I took the chain from around his neck And put a beware sign on the lawn 'Cause the more I'm around some people The more I like my dog Yeah the more I'm around some people You know the more I like my dog
