My Dog Ran Away (And I Am, Too) Lyrics

Today my best friend went away

We were like brothers, you could say

We'd roll on the floor, he'd lick my face

No one will ever take your place

My dog ran away, and I am, too

It's the only thing left to do

Since you fled I've been so blue

So I'm coming after you

I miss your fuzzy head, that mask upon your face

Your foamy little mouth, you can never be replaced

But one night you snuck from my room

How mom screamed and shooed you off with a broom

My dog ran away, and I am, too

It's the only thing left to do

Since you fled I've been so blue

So I'm coming after you

I looked for you in the backyard, I looked in the trash

Hung up lost dog flyers, with a reward of cash

These nights are so lonely, no one by my side

If I never see you again, well I'd rather die

After three days I found you at night

I reached out my hand and you took a bite

It hurt so bad, I started to bawl

Maybe you're not a dog after

It turns out my dog was a raccoon

Now I don't know what to do

Since I got rabies I've been so blue

And I'm staying away from you

Yeah I'm staying away from you
