Old Shep - Red Foley/His Texans[00:00:00]
When I was a lad and old shep was a pup[00:00:07]
O'er hills and meadows we'd stray[00:00:13]
Just a boy and his dog we both full of fun[00:00:19]
We grew up together that way[00:00:26]
I remember the time at the old swimmin' 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 eyesight was fast growin' 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 tremblin' 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 I wanted to run[00:01:37]
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 knee[00:01:57]
I stroked the best pal that a man ever found[00:02:03]
I cried so I scarcely could see[00:02:10]
Old sheppie he knew he was goin' to go[00:02:16]
For he reached out and licked at my hand[00:02:23]
He looked up at me just as much as to say[00:02:29]
We're partin' but you 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 there's one thing I know[00:02:55]
Old shep has a wonderful home[00:03:02]
