lyrics

You want to be a good dog,
But the fight is in your blood.
They say to keep a clean nose,
And they drag you through the mud.
So you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.
Yeah, you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.

You want to be a good dog,
But you bark up every tree.
They say to speak your own mind,
Then they tell you who to be.
So you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.
Yeah, you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.

You want to be a good dog,
But the fun is in the chase.
They tell you it's a big world,
Then they put you in your place.
So you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.
Yeah, you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.

It's a dirty world. These are ugly times.
Hard to get ahead when you're stuck in line.
It's a dirty world. These are ugly times.
Every breath you take is another crime.
So you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.
Yeah, you do what you will and do what you want
'Cause a dog's gotta live and a dog's gonna hunt.

I can't pick a favorite. All good. I tend to favor Shadows in the Dark, it to me is the "hit" but PP&F reminds me of an obscure Doors song and I dig that. So there. AMS Radio
