| Dear God, please send me somebody who will care. I'm tired of running, I'm sick with despair. My body is aching, its so racked with pain And dear god, I pray as I run in the rain That someone will love me and give me a home A warm cozy bed and a big juicy bone My last owner tied me all day in the yard Sometimes with no water, and god, that was hard So I chewed on my leash god and I ran away To rummage in garbage and live as a stray But now god, I'm tired and hungry and cold And I'm so afraid that I'll never grow old They've chased me with sticks and hit me with stones While I run the streets just looking for bones I'm not really bad god, please help if you can For I have become just a " victim of man " I'm wormy, dear god, and I'm ridden with fleas and all that I want is an owner to please If you find one for me, god, I'll try to be good I won't chew their shoes and I'll do as I should I will love them, protect them and try to obey When they tell me to sit, lie down or stay I don't think I'll make it too long on my own Cause I'm getting weak and oh so alone Each night as I sleep in the bushes I cry Cause I'm so afraid god that I'm gonna die I've got so much love and devotion to give That I should be given a new chance to live So, Dear God, please, please answer my prayer And send me somebody who will really care That is, Dear God, if you're really there
