The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
When I was a lad and old Shep was a pup over hills and the meadows we'd stray Just a boy and his dog we were both full of fun and we grew up together that way I remember the time at the old swimmin' hole When I would have drowned beyond doubt But old Shep he was right there to the rescue he came He jumped in and he pulled me out Now the years rolled along and at last he grew old his eye sight was fast growing dim Then one day the doctor looked at him and said well I can do no more for him Jim With a hand that was tremblin' I picked up my gun And I aimed it at Shep's faithful head But I just couldn't do it oh I wanted to run and I wished they would shoot me instead Well I went to his side and I sat on the ground and he laid his head on my knee I stroke the best pal that a man ever had then I cried so I scaresly could see Now old Shep is gone where the good doggies go and no more with old Shep will I roam But if dogs have a heaven there's one thing I know old Shep has a wonderful home
