Old Shep - Elvis Presley (猫王)[00:00:01]
Written by:Red Foley[00:00:02]
When I was a lad[00:00:10]
Old shep was a pup[00:00:16]
Over hills and meadows we'd stray[00:00:20]
Just a boy and his dog[00:00:30]
We were both full of fun[00:00:36]
We grew up together that way[00:00:41]
I remember the time at the old swimmin' hole[00:00:51]
When I would have drowned beyond doubt[00:01:01]
But old shep was right there[00:01:10]
To the rescue he came[00:01:16]
He jumped in and then pulled me out[00:01:21]
As the years fast did roll[00:01:31]
Old shep he grew old[00:01:36]
His eyes were fast growing dim[00:01:41]
And one day the doctor looked at me and said[00:01:51]
I can do no more for him Jim[00:02:01]
With hands that were trembling[00:02:11]
I picked up my gun[00:02:15]
And aimed it at shep's faithful head[00:02:20]
I just couldn't do it[00:02:30]
I wanted to run[00:02:34]
I wish they would shoot me instead[00:02:39]
He came to my side[00:02:49]
And looked up at me[00:02:54]
And laid his old head on my knee[00:02:59]
I had struck the best friend that a man ever had[00:03:08]
I cried so I scarcely could see[00:03:18]
Old shep he has gone[00:03:27]
Where the good doggies go[00:03:31]
And no more with old shep will I roam[00:03:36]
But if dogs have a heaven[00:03:45]
There's one thing I know[00:03:50]
Old shep has a wonderful home[00:03:55]
