about

Written about a dog missing his owner. This title comes from the songfight.org songwriting challenge. It was inspired by the Budweiser 'don't drink and drive' ad featuring a dog waiting for his owner to return the next morning because he had too much to drink. It's obviously written from the dog's perspective. (He's such a good boy, yes he is.)

Written January 2020

lyrics

I don't understand why you left me here alone
I don't understand what it is I did
Won't you please come home?

When you left you locked the door
Said that you'd be back
But you've been gone too long

I've been waiting all night through
Just want to be with you
But I think something's wrong

I don't understand, where could you be?
I need you here
I don't like to whine but I've got to go
I need something to eat

When you left you locked the door
Said that you'd be back
But I think something's wrong
