Old Shep - Red Foley/Henry Whitter/Clayton McMichen[00:00:00]

Written by：Clyde J. Foley/Arthur Willis[00:00:01]

When I was a lad[00:00:07]

And old Shep was a pup[00:00:09]

Over hills and meadows we'd stray[00:00:13]

Just a boy and his dog[00:00:19]

We were both full of fun[00:00:22]

We grew up together that way[00:00:25]

I remember the time at the old swimming hold[00:00:32]

When I would have drowned beyond doubt[00:00:38]

Shep was right there[00:00:44]

To the rescue he came[00:00:47]

He jumped in and helped pull me out[00:00:51]

So the years sped along and at last he grew old[00:00:57]

His eyesight was fast growing dim[00:01:03]

Then one day the doctor looked at me and said[00:01:09]

I can't do no more for him Jim[00:01:16]

With a hand that was trembling[00:01:22]

I picked up my gun[00:01:25]

I aimed it at Shep's faithful head[00:01:28]

I just couldn't do it[00:01:35]

I wanted to run[00:01:38]

And I wished that they'd shoot me instead[00:01:41]

I went to his side and I sat on the ground[00:01:47]

He laid his head on my knee[00:01:54]

I stroked the best pal that a man ever found[00:02:00]

I cried so I scarcely could see[00:02:06]

Old Sheppie he knew he was going to go[00:02:12]

For he reached out and licked at my hand[00:02:19]

He looked up at me[00:02:25]

Just as much as to say[00:02:28]

We're parting but you understand[00:02:31]

Now old Shep is gone where the good doggies go[00:02:38]

And no more with old Shep will I roam[00:02:44]

But if dogs have a heaven[00:02:51]

There's one thing I know[00:02:54]

Old Shep has a wonderful home[00:02:57]
