《Old Shep》歌词

[00:00:00] Old Shep - Hank Snow

[00:00:07] Now when I was a lad

[00:00:10] And old Shep was a pup

[00:00:14] Over hills and meadows we'd stray

[00:00:20] Just a boy and his dog

[00:00:23] We were both full of fun

[00:00:26] We grew up together that way

[00:00:33] I remember the time at the old swimmin' hole

[00:00:39] When I would have drowned beyond doubt

[00:00:46] But old Shep was right there

[00:00:49] To the rescue he came

[00:00:52] He jumped in and then pulled me out

[00:00:59] As the years roll long

[00:01:02] And old Shep he grew old

[00:01:05] His eyes were fast growing dim

[00:01:12] And one day the doctor looked at me and said

[00:01:18] I can do no more for your dog

[00:01:24] So with trembling hands

[00:01:28] I picked up my gun

[00:01:31] And aimed it at Shep's faithful head

[00:01:37] But I just couldn't do it

[00:01:41] I wanted to run

[00:01:44] I wish they would shoot me instead

[00:01:50] So I threw down my little gun

[00:01:53] Then he run to my side

[00:01:56] And laid his old head right on my knee

[00:02:02] My friend I had struck the best gun that a man ever had

[00:02:10] I even cried so I scarcely could see

[00:02:17] Now Old Shep he knew he was going to go

[00:02:22] 'Cause he reached down and lift my head

[00:02:30] Then looked but me

[00:02:32] Just mine to say

[00:02:36] I hate to but you understand

[00:02:42] Now Shep gone

[00:02:46] Where the good doggies go

[00:02:49] And no more with old Shep will I roam

[00:02:55] But if dogs have a heaven

[00:02:58] There's one thing I know

[00:03:01] Old Shep has a wonderful home
