 Struggling with Old Dog? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

I'm walking around here going crazy
Can't get it right in my mind
There's a demon within me pulling at me
I wish I could leave the past behind

I drink whiskey and try to forget it
But that's just makes the pain even more
Maybe if I started out running
I could find what I'm looking for

They must be out there somewhere
Peace of mind, serenity

[Chorus]
Somehow I'm just like an old dog
Searching for a porch to lie on
I'm lost and lonely for the answer
To the lies I've told to me for so long
I believe that highways hold solutions
That blacktop road can't be wrong

The bends and curves and unknown courses
See all the signs but never stop
Signals show themselves but I ignore them
Supposed to be some joy but there's not

[Chorus]

Confusion leads to aggravation
Meanness is making me blind
What bothers me today keeps me wondering
Damn this bloody state of mind

Misery is around me
I'm tired but I can't sit still
Crawling in my skin my body's aging
I think I hear the dog on the hill

They must but out there somewhere
Peace of mind, serenity

Somehow I'm just like an old dog
Searching for a porch to lie on
Somehow I'm just like an old dog
Searching for a porch to lie on
