 OLD SHEP
 When I was a lad , old Shep was a pup.
 Over hills and valleys we's roam.
 Just a boy and his dog, we were both full of fun.
 We grew up together that way .
 I remember the times at the old swimming hole,
 That I would have drowned , no doubt.
 Shep was right there , to the rescue he came ,
 He jumped in and helped pull me out .
 
 So the years rolled along , and at last he grew old.
 His eye sight was fast growing dim.
 Then one day the Dr., looked at me and said ,
 I can do no more for him , Jim.
 With a hand that was trembling ,I picked up my gun.
 I aimed it at Shep's faithful head.
 I just couldn't do it , I wanted to run.
 I wish they'd shoot me instead.
 
 I went to his side , and sat on the ground ,
 He laid his head on my knee.
 I stroked the best pal that a man ever found .
 I cried so I scarcely , could see.
 Old Shep he knew , he was going to go ,
 For he reached out and licked at my hand .
 He looked up at me , just as much to say ,
 We're parting ,but you'll understand .
 
 Now ,Old Sheppy gone , where the good Doggy's go .
 No more with Old Shep will I roam.
 But if dogs have a heaven,
 There's one thing I know ,
 Old Shep , had a wonderful Home .
