Lyrics: Patty Griffin. Flaming Red. Change.


Dog comes howling up behind you
Sinks his teeth in your leg
Tells you how now things are
Going to be a little different
And he takes you down a peg
You make him ashamed for you
He buys you a new dress
Because you make him ashamed for you
He'd like you to took your best
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
And the dog bites down a little harder

Somewhere out in the wild wild west
That silly little thing that we tossed, tossed, tossed
Somehow we don't talk about nothing else but that
Silly little thing that we lost, that we lost, that we lost
And now there's no name for you
Come to find out none of that shit was even true
But now there's no name for you
I understand that we lost that too
When you change oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
And the dog bites down a little harder

Change ...........

Man said "Woman I'm a little tired of you"
And she said "Don't leave me baby
I'll do anything you want me to"
And he said "Can't you do something
About the mess around this place"
She said "Anything baby, anything,
I'll cover my face"

You make him ashamed for you
He buys you a new dress
Cause you make him ashamed for you
In your nakedness
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh
So you change oh oh oh oh oh oh
Change
And the dog bites down a little harder
