1
When I was a lad and Old Shep was a pup
2
Over hills and meadows we'd stray
3
Just a boy and his dog, we were both full of fun
4
We grew up together that way
5
I remember the time at the old swimmin' hole
6
When I would have drowned beyond doubt
7
But Old Shep was right there, to the rescue he came
8
He jumped in and then pulled me out
9
As the years fast did roll, Old Shep he grew old
10
His eyes were fast growin' dim
11
And one day the doctor looked at me and said
12
I can do no more for your dog
13
With hands that were tremblin', I picked up my gun
14
And aimed it at Shep's faithful head
15
I just couldn't do it, I wanted to run
16
I wish they would shoot me instead
17
He came to my side and looked up at me
18
And laid his old head on my knee
19
I had struck the best friend that a man ever had
20
I cried so I scarcely could see
21
Old Shep he has gone where the good doggies go
22
And no more with Old Shep will I roam
23
But if dogs have a heaven, there's one thing I know
24
Old Shep has a wonderful home
