When I was up, you would always come around
But when I needed a friend, oh you could never be found
I got a hole where my heart used to be
I wouldn't treat a dog, oh Lord, the way you treated me
Oh when times was good, all of your loving was the same
When the going got rough, ah you hardly knew my name
You locked me out and you threw away the key
I wouldn't treat a dog, oh babe, the way you treated me
Got me crying for the love that I'm needed
Begging like a dog for a bone
Oh I've spent all of my time pleading
You turned your back and you leave me, one of these old days
Lord knows it's true, when you need someone so bad
Just won't be there for you
Then you say as you're begging down on your knees
I wouldn't treat a dog, oh Lord, the way you treated me
The way you treated me, well now
You got me crying for the love that I'm needed
Begging like a dog for a bone
Hey I've spent all of my time pleading
You turned your back, when you leave me one of these old days
God knows it's true
When you need someone so bad, they walk right out you
Then you say
As you're begging down on your knees
I wouldn't treat a dog, oh Lord
The way you treated me
The way you treated me, listen
I wouldn't treat a dog, no
The way you treated me, hold me
I couldn't treat a dog, Lord
The way you treated me
I couldn't treat a dog, Lord
The way you treated me, it hurts so bad
I couldn't treat a dog, ah no
The way you treated me
I just keeping doin' it to you babe
I wouldn't treat a dog, oh Lord
The way you treated me, listen
I wouldn't...
