Lyrics
Dogs in the night
A E - E7 A
We like to roam when the sun goes down In the night
A E - E7 A
Take to the streets all over the town In the night
A E - E7 A
We live life unchained and on the run In the night
A E - E7 A
Don’t give a crap about the neighbor’s lawn In the night
D
Kicking dust through the alleyways
A
Knocking trash cans all over the place
D
Ganging up on some big black cat
E
Splitting fast without getting scratched
A E - E7 A
The city sleeps but I got friends to meet Dogs in the night
A E - E7 A
I hear the barking and the bitches in heat Dogs in the night
A E - E7 A
I slept all day now I’m ready to roam Dogs in the night
A E - E7 A
The town’s closed up the dog catcher’s at home Dogs in the night
A D A
And when the siren goes by We bow wow hour heads and howl at the sky
A D A
And when the night turns to day We scurry home with our tail ‘tween our legs
Break
A D A
And when the siren goes by We bow wow hour heads and howl at the sky
A D A
And when the night turns to day We scurry home with our tail ‘tween our legs
D A – A7 D
They say our lives won’t last very long Short life for a dog in the night
D A – A7 D
We’ll live it fast whether right or wrong No time for morals, dogs in the night
D A – A7 D
Don’t pick no bones if you ain’t looking to fight Don’t start nothing with a dog in the night
D A – A7 D
Cause I’m nobody’s pet when I’m a dog in the night Nobody’s pet when I’m a dog in the night
