Old Shep - Red Foley[00:00:00]
Written by:Red Foley[00:00:03]
When I was a lad and old shep was a pup[00:00:06]
O'er hills and meadows we'd strayed[00:00:12]
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[00:00:45]
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[00:01:11]
I can't do no more for him jim[00:01:18]
With a hand that was trembling I picked up my gun[00:01:24]
I aimed it at shep's faithful head[00:01:31]
I just couldn't do it[00:01:37]
I wanted to run[00:01:41]
And I wished they'd shoot me instead[00:01:43]
I went to his side and I sat on the ground[00:01:50]
He laid his head on my knees[00:01:57]
I stroke the best pal that a man ever found[00:02:03]
I cried so I scaresly could see[00:02:10]
Old shepy he knew he was going to go[00:02:15]
For he reached out and nipped at my hand[00:02:22]
He looked up at me just as much as to say[00:02:29]
We're parting but you'll understand[00:02:35]
Now old shep is gone where the good doggies go[00:02:42]
And no more with old shep will I roam[00:02:48]
But if dogs have a heaven[00:02:55]
There's one thing I know[00:02:59]
Old shep has[00:03:02]
A wonderful home[00:03:04]
