You can't live with them
No matter what you do
You can't live without them
I'm telling you the truth
You see it every day as a struggle
I might be better off alone
There's no king in my castle
Now that the dog house is my home

I had a few friends over
Sit around and shoot the breeze
My woman walked into the room and said
Keep the noise down please
Every day we argue
I might be better off alone
There's no king in my castle
Now that the dog house is my home

This ain't no way for a man to live
No matter what I do it's all take and no give
She my never let you know
Just what she wants from you
But she'll hound you if you don't
And she'll dog you if you do

If I could read her mind
I think I would get a clue
Then she wouldn't have to tell me
The things I don't do
Well then we wouldn't argue
She wouldn't have to be alone
The king and queen would be together
And the dog house would not be my home

This ain't no way for a man to live
No matter what I do it's all take and no give
She my never let you know
Just what she wants from you
But she'll hound you if you don't
And she'll dog you if you do

If I could read her mind
I think I'd get a clue
Then she wouldn't have to tell me
All the things I don't do
Well then we wouldn't argue
She wouldn't have to be alone
The king and queen would be together
And the dog house would not be my home
The king and queen would be together
And the dog house would not be my home
The king and queen would be together
And the dog house would not be my home
