The Roches - Rover lyrics

someday i'm gonna get a dog

and the dog's gonna run free

and i won't need a collar or a leash

cause i'll be living in the country

and when somebody doesn't want to play

i'm gonna open up the door wide

and i'll be runnin' in the tall grass

with my own dog by my side

and when i find a secret hiding place

i'll make a soft pillow out of hay

and i'll share it with my happy dog

we will stay there for the whole day

i love to be free

that's the best thing about me

and there's a rover in the world now

with the same dream so we

will find our way home

when the colors of the sunset

i see them stretch across a big sky

that's a good feeling we get

and by the time i go to sleep at night

i'm ready for tomorrow as i doze

i got a warm cover over me

sleeping rover on my toes

someday i'm gonna get a dog

and the dog's gonna run free

and i won't need a collar or a leash

'cause we'll be living in the country

living in the country!

living in the country!
