[Verse 1] Mama never liked to talk about the way she found me
Cryin' in a cardboard box on the side of the road
She reckons in a couple of hours I would've been a goner
Taken too soon from a life I'd never known
I wasn't easy to love
Got in a world of trouble
Near chewed up the whole dang town in a couple of weeks
That's when the mayor called and he said
"Son, from now on, I guess you're wearin' a leash
'Til you've shown us just what a good boy you can be"

[Chorus] Yeah, you better believe
I'm gonna go outside
Roll the stinkin' windows down and go for a ride
Though I wish you wouldn't leave me home alone tonight
I get the feelin' everything is gonna be alright
Ain't scared to raise hell
'Cause all dogs go to Heaven

[Verse 2] Morning of the 4th of July, I never saw comin'
Thought it was just another day in my quarter acre paradise
Yeah, when the guns went off like a tickin' bomb
As I ran out into the street
Finally seeing the light ran the shit right outta me

[Chorus] Yeah, you better believe
I'm gonna go outside
Roll the stinkin' windows down and go for a ride
Though I wish you wouldn't leave me home alone tonight
I get the feelin' everything is gonna be alright
Ain't scared to raise hell
'Cause all dogs go to Heaven
That's right

[Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Yeah, you better believe
I'm gonna go outside
Yeah, roll the stinkin' windows down and go for a ride
Yeah, though I wish you wouldn't leave me home alone tonight
I get the feelin' everything is gonna be alright
Ain't scared to raise hell
'Cause all dogs go to Heaven, yeah
Ain't scared to raise hell
'Cause all dogs go to Heaven
