Was early in November
the leaves were on the ground
I couldn't get up, I'd just gotten down
I'm all alone a-waiting by the phone
Waiting for your call so patiently

You filled me with worry
You filled me with fear
I'm not standing still and I'm not staying here
Outta my way I can't take it no more
There's a brown dog barking at the back door
brown dog barking at the back door
Come on!

So off on my adventure, now where do I begin?
America called, it's calling again
I'm jumping on a plane
I'm drinking all the way
I wake up in the sunshine every day

We came for the money we came for the fun
Remember your mother stay out of the sun
Living the life 'cause that's what we came for
There's a brown dog
barking at the back door
brown dog barking at the back door
Come on!

We're not going home
We're not going home!
We know they're behind us
but they'll never find us
'Cause we're on our way
We're on our way!

Now what's that my darling, what did you say?
I know you were sad when I went away
But I'm over here, by now it should be clear
I won't be going back there any day

You filled me with worry
you filled me with fear
I didn't stand still and I came over here
Outta my way I can't take it no more
There's a brown dog
barking at the back door brown dog
barking at the back door
Brown dog barking at the back door
brown dog barking at the back door!

Brown dog, brown dog, brown dog no more
Brown dog, brown dog
I won't be knocking at your back door

1, 2 a 1 2 3 4! Yeah!
