Lyrics
Let Sleepin’ Dogs Lie
Up to my neck in the desert sand the air’s so hot that it just might crack
Dehydrated ‘n my lips are chapped feels like I’m drownin’ on dry land
Love is thicker than blood and I know we’ll stand as one
So ya betta get ready for one hell of a fight
Ya shoulda let them sleeping dogs lie
Come hell or high-water it’s the end of the line
Shoulda let them sleepin’, shoulda let them sleepin’ dogs lie
There’s a storm brewin’ n’ it’s movin’ fast better run for cover ‘n watch my ass
Baptism of fire in the workin’ class feels like I’m drownin’ on dry land
Love is thicker than blood and I know we’ll stand as one
So ya betta get ready for one hell of a fight
Ya shoulda let them sleeping dogs lie
Come hell or high-water it’s the end of the line
Shoulda let them sleepin’, ya shoulda let them sleepin’ dogs lie
Shoulda let them sleepin’, ya shoulda let them sleepin’ dogs lie
Like an animal that’s been caught in a trap there’s no escaping that deadly grasp
So damn funny I forgot to laugh and it feels like I’m drownin’ on dry land
Love is thicker than blood and I know we’ll stand as one
So ya betta get ready for one hell of a fight
Ya shoulda let them sleeping dogs lie
Come hell or high-water it’s the end of the line
Ya shoulda let them sleepin’, shoulda let them sleepin’ dogs lie
Ya shoulda let them sleepin’, shoulda let them sleepin’ dogs lie
Shoulda let them sleepin’, shoulda let them sleepin’ dogs lie
