When I was a lad |
| [00:16.01] |
And old shep was a pup |
| [00:20.91] |
Over hills and meadows wed stray |
| [00:30.76] |
Just a boy and his dog |
| [00:35.95] |
We were both full of fun |
| [00:41.24] |
We grew up together that way |
| [00:50.92] |
I remember the time at the old swimmin hold |
| [01:01.25] |
When I would have drowned beyond doubt |
| [01:10.67] |
But old shep was right there |
| [01:16.16] |
To the rescue he came |
| [01:21.26] |
He jumped in and then pulled me out |
| [01:30.90] |
As the years fast did roll |
| [01:36.03] |
Old shep he grew old |
| [01:41.07] |
His eyes were fast growing dim |
| [01:50.61] |
And one day the doctor looked at me and said |
| [02:00.53] |
I can do no more for him jim |
| [02:10.75] |
With hands that were trembling |
| [02:15.15] |
I picked up my gun |
| [02:19.96] |
And aimed it at sheps faithful head |
| [02:29.49] |
I just couldnt do it |
| [02:34.29] |
I wanted to run |
| [02:39.24] |
I wish they would me shoot instead |
| [02:48.46] |
He came to my side |
| [02:53.50] |
And looked up at me |
| [02:58.24] |
And laid his old head on my knee |
| [03:07.65] |
I had struck the best friend that a man ever had |
| [03:17.04] |
I cried so I scarcely could see |
| [03:26.17] |
Old shep he has gone |
| [03:30.76] |
Where the good doggies go |
| [03:35.51] |
And no more with old shep will I roam |
| [03:44.49] |
But if dogs have a heaven |
| [03:49.33] |
Theres one thing I know |
| [03:54.07] |
Old shep has a wonderful home |
