The More I'm Around Some People, The More I Like My Dog - Sonny Burgess

I got a boss that likes to ride my back

Down at the factory

Somebody’s always riding my bumper

Honking when the light turns green

I loaned my best buddy money

I ain’t seen him since

He avoids me like the plague

Got a message from my girlfriend

She met a new man and married him yesterday

The more I’m around some people

The more I like my dog

Now I don’t understand when folks come to see me

Why he tries to run' em off

So I took the chain from around his neck

And put a beware sign on the lawn

'Cause the more I’m around some people

The more I like my dog

I got caught in the middle of he said, she said

Something I didn’t say

My landlord told me my rent was going up

Well that’s a bill I just can’t pay

My neighbor’s trying to sue me

He don’t know there’s nothing to me

My brother complains about the music I play

Just last week I got car-jacked

Now I’m thumbing to work again

The more I’m around some people

The more I like my dog

Man’s best friend until the end

He’s never done me wrong

So I took the chain from around his neck

And put a beware sign on the lawn

'Cause the more I’m around some people

The more I like my dog

So I took the chain from around his neck

And put a beware sign on the lawn

'Cause the more I’m around some people

The more I like my dog

Yeah the more I’m around some people

You know the more I like my dog
