Hair Of The Dog

Peter Mayer/Jay Oliver

I kicked the bad habits, yeah I broke ‘em in two
With nothing left for me but misery babe
I had to grow up and go to school
I let go of everything that I could let go
But there’s one thing that can make me sing honey and I want more

I felt the sting of the Cupid’s arrow, I felt the fever too
Some doctor said it was all in my head better stick to chicken soup
You’re the tear in my eye you’re the joy in my heart
But I need a degree in chemistry baby to comprehend the lovers art

Chorus
Still I come back to love by the hair of the dog
Just one little cup of your sweet talk
I come back to love and I’ll feel fine
Heavens above just one more time
I come back to love by the hair of the dog

The first kiss is heaven, then you get your wings
But no one told me ’bout these thunder clouds baby
Or how I’m going to fly this thing
I’ve run for the money, well I’ve lived for the show
But I die every time you say good-bye honey and it’s back I go

Day by day little by little
You get to know your friend
Just when you think you rid of the riddle
You have to go and kiss me again

Chorus
