[Verse 1] Sunday socks on the kitchen floor Coffee coolin’ by the back screen door You come trottin’ like you own this place Tennis ball in your mouth Smile on your face [Chorus] I love petting my dog Little heartbeat in my hands All the bad days kind of fade out When you curl up where I stand Yeah The world feels so small When you’re snoring on my chest I love petting my dog That’s the part I love the best [Verse 2] Fur stuck all on my favorite jeans You don’t care what that even means You just nudge till I set things down Tilt your head like “You here now?” [Chorus] I love petting my dog Little heartbeat in my hands All the bad days kind of fade out When you curl up where I stand Yeah The world feels so small When you’re snoring on my chest I love petting my dog That’s the part I love the best [Outro] Yeah, I love petting my dog… Soft little sighs in the quiet dark Head on my lap, tail barely moves Thank God for the love in those eyes I love petting my dog… That’s the part I love the best
