you ain t no good i hear her say under her breath as she turns away i ll take the car i ll take the house i ll take the kids and then i ll turn you out i was led along like a dog on a chain out in the cold out in the rain i was led along like a dog on a leash i did as told while she did as she pleased i was led along like a dog on my knees she berates me calls me crazy certifiably insane once she praised me now she hates me i can t see how i have changed i was led along like a dog on a chain out in the cold out in the rain i was led along like a dog on a leash i did as told while she did as she pleased i was led along like a dog on my knees love s not easy love s not kind it only works when you re half blind don t be the only one to sacrifice don t be the only one to compromise standing frozen my mouth open though i did what they say can t conceive it or believe it though it s just as plain as day i was led along like a dog on a chain out in the cold out in the rain i was led along like a dog on a leash i did as told while she did as she pleased i was led along like a dog on my knees
