Well, my dog wears   A path in the same line   And lately I'm thinking   I might take his advice      'Cause he sees through the fence   And he thinks I'm free   Well, my cane and his shame   Look the same to me      All alone in a cage   With a headrest   There's a thing I could get   Off of my chest      'Cause I wanna wear   The path that's true   And I wanna wear   The path with you      Out in the cold off the leash   For years or more   I don't even know what it was   I was waiting for      Well, maybe I barked up   The wrong tree   That was then, now I'm back   Won't you see me?      'Cause I wanna wear   The path that's true   And I wanna wear   The path with you   Oh, it's true      I used to be afraid   Of growing old   And hanging 'round   The same old place   But I got older anyway      So won't you   So won't you   So won't you   Wash my fears away      Well, my dog wears a path   And that's a good sign   (Do do do do do, do-do do do)   'Cause my dog wears a path   In the same line   (Same line)      Now runnin' to his cage   With a headrest   There's a thing   I should get off of my chest   (Get off of my chest)      By a house, go to work   In the same car   Feed the dog, put my teeth   In the same jar      I wanna tell you that   I wanna wear   The path that's true   And I wanna wear   The path with you   And I wanna wear   The path that's true
