Hank Snow - Old Shep слова песни
Recorded by Hank SnowWhen I was a ladAnd old Shep was a pupOver hills and meadows we`d strayJust a boy and his dogWe were both full of funWe grew up together that wayI remember the time at the old swimmin` holeWhen I would have drowned beyond doubtBut old Shep was right thereTo the rescue he cameHe jumped in and then pulled me outAs the years fast did rollOld Shep he grew oldHis eyes were fast growing dimAnd one day the doctor looked at me and saidI can do no more for your dogWith hands that were tremblingI picked up my gunAnd aimed it at Shep`s faithful headI just couldn`t do itI wanted to runI wish they would shoot me insteadHe came to my sideAnd looked up at meAnd laid his old head on my kneeI had struck the best friend that a man ever hadI cried so I scarcely could seeOld Shep he has goneWhere the good doggies goAnd no more with old Shep will I roamBut if dogs have a heavenThere`s one thing I knowOld Shep has a wonderful home
