Old Shep - Red Foley[00:00:00]
When I was a lad and old Shep was a pup[00:00:07]
O'er hills and meadows we'd strayed[00:00:13]
Just a boy and his dog we were both full of fun[00:00:19]
We grew up together that way [00:00:26]
I remember the time at the old swimming hole[00:00:32]
When I would have drowned beyond doubt[00:00:39]
Shep was right there to the rescue he came[00:00:46]
He jumped in and helped pull me out[00:00:52]
So the years sped along and at last he grew old[00:00:58]
His eye sight was fast growing dim[00:01:05]
Then one day the doctor looked at me and said[00:01:12]
I can't do no more for him Jim [00:01:18]
With a hand that was trembling[00:01:25]
I picked up my gun[00:01:28]
I aimed it at Shep's faithful head[00:01:31]
I just couldn't do it I wanted to run[00:01:38]
And I wished they'd shoot me instead [00:01:44]
I went to his side and I sat on the ground[00:01:51]
He laid his head on my knees[00:01:57]
I stroke the best pal that a man ever found[00:02:04]
I cried so I scaresly could see [00:02:10]
Old Shepy he knew he was going to go[00:02:16]
For he reached out and nipped at my hand[00:02:23]
He looked up at me just as much as to say[00:02:30]
We're parting but you'll understand [00:02:36]
Now old Shep is gone where the good doggies go[00:02:42]
And no more with old Shep will I roam[00:02:49]
But if dogs have a heaven[00:02:55]
There's one thing I know[00:02:59]
Old Shep has a wonderful home[00:03:02]
