Faithfully (September Remix Challenge)

(Highway run into the midnight sun) (Got a chew toy in my teeth for the long drive home) Highway run to the dog park gate, Chasing squirrels till it's getting late. Got my tennis ball held in my mouth tight, Know you're waiting on the porch for the porch light. And it's hard when you leave me alone all day, Sitting by the window while you're gone away. I'll never chase the same cat, I'll never drool like I did back then. It's been a long week, it almost broke me down, But when you walk through that front door, I am wagging faithfully! When I hear your keys jingle, human, You make a pup so happy! I may not be a good boy every day, But I'm a dog who still believes. When you scratch behind my floppy ears, I am wagging faithfully! I've had a rough time, Waiting for my dinner bowl to fill above me. And if I'm keeping it real, I've been half-whining for the treats you see. I may look like the same hound, But I'm half the pup I was when you're not around. In my nap time, you pet me, So quietly, so gently. You said you'd never leave, And you gave me a belly rub! 'Cause when you open up that peanut butter, I am begging faithfully! When I hear you say "who's a good boy," You make a way for me. I may chew up your favorite slipper, But I'm a dog who still believes. When you give me a bacon strip treat, I love you faithfully!
