Lyrics
By mistake I heard
Some news about you
I just turned my head
And closed my ears
It hurts so bad
First I tried to look
I paused a moment
Just to catch my breath
Until I saw how big a fool I was
To love you so
And when I turned right back
I had no where to go
Remember when I told you
Not long ago
If you wanted somebody new
To make me know
One day you know
Just how it feels
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
It seems like only yesterday
We chased a rainbow
Now our pot of gold
Has turned to worthless, useless simple tune
It was just a dream
And I just woke up
I don't have anything
Now you seem to act so strange
I told you so
Only got yourself to blame
Wanna let you know
One day you'll see
Just how it feels
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
Pay back is a dog
Dog, it's a dog
