Bonnie Prince Billy - Tonight With the Dogs I'm Sleeping Lyrics

Sitting at the bar with a drink or two

Telephone rings and it's you-know-who

You know who's a-gonna get his ass chewed tonight

Never liked sleeping out in the yard

But sometimes crawling up the stairs is too damn hard

Besides I don't think I can make it that far

So I'm sleeping with the dogs tonight



Sleeping with the dogs tonight

Howling at the moon

Feels like the morning light

Always comes too soon

I'm all bark and she's all bite

I'm sleeping with the dogs tonight



She said if I don't get home soon

There won't be home to get home to

My little firecracker has a really short fuse

That don't take much to light

I could give up half of everything I own

And stay right here and just get stoned

Or obey my master and GO HOME! GO HOME!

I'm sleeping with the dogs tonight



Sleeping with the dogs tonight

Howling at the moon

Feels like the morning light

Always comes too soon

I'm all bark and she's all bite

I'm sleeping with the dogs tonight



This boy's night out has been real fun

But now the good time's almost done

When she gets this way, well I better run

If I want to see her smile

If she don't see me pulling in

She said she'd call her ex-boyfriend

That guy can bench 310/it's that fella you heard just got out of the pen

Boys I may not be back for a while



Sleeping with the dogs tonight

Howling at the moon

Feels like the morning light

Always comes too soon

I'm all bark and she's all bite

I'm sleeping with the dogs tonight

I'm all bark and she's all bite

I'm sleeping with the dogs tonight
