[Intro]
C G G C
[Verse 1]
Why does a Cdeer get froze by headlights?
Why does a 'Gpecker bang his head on your stovepipe
When he's Ggot himself a perfectly good pine log of his Cown?
Why did I Cgo out lookin' for answers
At the Gall-night bars with the pole-dancers?
When the Gtruth was waitin' in a warm bed back at Chome
[Chorus 1]
Sometimes Fdogs bark at nothin'
Like when Clittle kids start cussin'
They don't know Gwhy, they just do it 'cause they Ccan
Sometimes a Fgirl's heart gets busted
By a Cboy that she once trusted
Ain't no Greason 'cept that he was born a Cman
[Instrumental]
G C
[Verse 2]
Why does a Clightning bug keep flashin'
GDyin' in the ditch with a burnin' passion
When Gall the other bugs have got their lovin' and Cgone?
How come there Cain't no rhyme or reason
For why a Gbig bright sun in the summer season
Can Gstill leave a body feeling cold and all Calone?
[Chorus 2]
Sometimes Fdogs bark at nothin'
Like when Clittle kids start cussin'
They don't know Gwhy, they just do it 'cause they Ccan
Sometimes a Fgirl's heart gets busted
By a Cboy that she once trusted
Ain't no Greason 'cept that he was born a Cman
Yeah, there ain't no Greason 'cept that he was born a Cman

[Intro]

C G G C

[Verse 1]

Why does a deer get froze by headlights?

Why does a 'pecker bang his head on your stovepipe

G C

When he's got himself a perfectly good pine log of his own?

Why did I go out lookin' for answers

At the all-night bars with the pole-dancers?

G C

When the truth was waitin' in a warm bed back at home

[Chorus 1]

Sometimes dogs bark at nothin'

Like when little kids start cussin'

G C

They don't know why, they just do it 'cause they can

Sometimes a girl's heart gets busted

By a boy that she once trusted

G C

Ain't no reason 'cept that he was born a man

[Instrumental]

G C

[Verse 2]

Why does a lightning bug keep flashin'

Dyin' in the ditch with a burnin' passion

G C

When all the other bugs have got their lovin' and gone?

How come there ain't no rhyme or reason

For why a big bright sun in the summer season

G C

Can still leave a body feeling cold and all alone?

[Chorus 2]

Sometimes dogs bark at nothin'

Like when little kids start cussin'

G C

They don't know why, they just do it 'cause they can

Sometimes a girl's heart gets busted

By a boy that she once trusted

G C

Ain't no reason 'cept that he was born a man

G C

Yeah, there ain't no reason 'cept that he was born a man
