[Verse]

I pull in the driveway after work each night

There's a waggin’ tail

It’s a pure delight

My dog’s by the door

She’s ready to greet

With a jump and a bark and her paws at my feet

[Chorus]

My dog's happier to see me

Yeah

That's no surprise

Her love is honest

You can see it in her eyes

My wife just grumbles

Says

"You're late again"

But my dog wags her tail like I’m her best friend

[Verse 2]

She doesn't wear makeup

She’s naturally bright

My dog doesn't care if I’m wrong or I’m right

My wife’s in the kitchen

Her look could kill

But my dog’s got joy

And it gives me a thrill

[Chorus]

My dog's happier to see me

Yeah

That's no surprise

Her love is pure

There's no need for disguise

A growl from the couch or a bark at the door

Yeah

But my dog’s got joy

And it gives me a thrill

[Bridge]

Don't get me wrong

My wife’s alright

She’s tough as nails

She’ll put up a fight

But when it comes to love that don't ask for much

It’s my dog’s wagging tail that’s got the Midas touch

[Chorus]

My dog's happier to see me

Yeah

That's no debate

Her loyalty's gold

And her bark’s first-rate

No judgmental glances

No icy replies

Just licks of joy beneath the evening skies
