Old Rover - Hank Snow[00:00:00]

Written by：Public Domain[00:00:01]

Two little boys and an old family dog[00:00:08]

By the banks of a stream sat one day[00:00:14]

The boys decided old rover must die[00:00:21]

A nusance well out of the way[00:00:28]

The poor old fellow stood close by their side[00:00:35]

His fate he couldn't quite understand[00:00:41]

With a wag of his tail and a half sobbing wail[00:00:48]

He reached out and licked at their hands[00:00:55]

Remember I'm your best friend boys[00:01:02]

Oh no one could love you so true[00:01:09]

Though you may beat me and bang me today[00:01:16]

Tomorrow I'll play games with you[00:01:23]

I know I am old and quite in the way[00:01:29]

But life to me still holds a charm[00:01:36]

Well I've only one favor to ask of you boys[00:01:43]

Let me spend my last days on the farm[00:01:50]

With a rope round his neck they were ready to tie[00:02:04]

His pleading seemed of no avail[00:02:11]

Just then one of the boys slipped and fell in the stream[00:02:17]

The other stood by deadly pale[00:02:24]

A loud cry for help and old rover plunged in[00:02:31]

No sight of old age or delay[00:02:38]

And as he slowly swam back to the shore[00:02:45]

The waves dashing by in his face[00:02:51]

Remember I'm your best friend boys[00:02:58]

Oh no one could love you so true[00:03:05]

Though you may beat me and bang me today[00:03:12]

Tomorrow I'll play games with you[00:03:19]

I know I am old and quite in the way[00:03:25]

But life to me still holds a charm[00:03:32]

Well I've only one favor to ask of you boys[00:03:38]

Let me spend my last days on the farm[00:03:45]
