You call me a dog well that's fair enough
'Cause it ain't no use to pretend you're wrong
When you call me out I can't hide anymore
I have no disguise you can't see through
Well you say it's bad luck to have fallen for me
Well what can I say to make it good for you
You wore me out like an old winter coat
Trying to be safe from the cold
Oh, but when it's my time
To throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all
You call me a dog, you tell me I'm low
'Cause I've slept on the floor
And out in the woods with the badgers and wolves
You threw me out 'cause I went digging for gold
And I came home with a handful of coal
But when it's my time
To throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all
And when it's my time
To call your bluff
I'll call you beautiful
Or leave it alone, yeah
You call me a dog, well that's fair enough
It doesn't bother me as long as you know
But bad luck will follow you if you keep me on a leash
And you drag me along
And when it's my time
To throw the next stone
I'll call you beautiful if I call at all, yeah
And when it's my time
To call your bluff
I'll call you beautiful
Or leave it alone, yeah
