[00:00.00]Old Shep - Hank Snow
[00:03.85]Written by：Red Foley
[00:07.71]Now when I was a lad and old Shep was a pup
[00:14.93]Over hills and valleys we'd stray
[00:22.06]Just a boy and his dog we were both full of fun
[00:29.24]We grew up together that way
[00:36.30]I remember the time at the old swimming hole
[00:43.90]When I would have drowned beyond doubt
[00:50.56]But old Shep was right there to the rescue he came
[00:57.80]He jumped in and helped drag me out
[01:04.79]Now the years rolled along and at last he grew old
[01:11.99]His eye sight was fast growing dim
[01:18.88]Then one day the doctor looked at me and said
[01:25.94]I can't do no more for him jim
[01:33.31]So with trembling hand I picked up my gun
[01:40.67]Aimed it at Shep's faithful head
[01:47.25]But I just couldn't do it I wanted to run
[01:54.32]I wished they would shoot me instead
[02:02.52]So I threw down that old gun ran right up to his side
[02:09.92]He laid his faithful old head right on my knee
[02:14.99]And friends I stroked the best pal that a man ever found
[02:24.19]I even cried so I scarsely could see
[02:32.29]Now old Shap he knew he knew he was going to go
[02:37.18]'Cause he reached out and he licked at my hand
[02:47.49]Then he looked up at me just as much as to say
[02:54.99]I hate to but you understand
[03:01.38]Now old Shep is gone where the good doggies go
[03:08.84]And no more with old Shep will I roam
[03:16.38]But if dogs have a heaven there's one thing I know
[03:23.97]Old Shep has a wonderful home
