[00:10.44]When I was a lad
[00:15.74]And old shep was a pup
[00:20.69]Over hills and meadows we'd stray
[00:30.57]Just a boy and his dog
[00:35.77]We were both full of fun
[00:41.13]We grew up together that way
[00:50.90]I remember the time at the old swimmin' hole
[01:01.18]When I would have drowned beyond doubt
[01:10.75]But old Shep was right there
[01:16.08]To the rescue he came
[01:21.28]He jumped in and then pulled me out
[01:30.97]As the years fast did roll
[01:36.05]Old Shep he grew old
[01:41.08]His eyes were fast growing dim
[01:50.70]And one day the doctor looked at me and said
[02:00.99]I can do no more for him Jim
[02:11.07]With hands that were trembling
[02:15.39]I picked up my gun
[02:20.24]And aimed it at Shep's faithful head
[02:29.78]I just couldn't do it I wanted to run
[02:39.56]I wish they would shoot me instead
[02:48.74]He came to my side and looked up at me
[02:58.62]And laid his old head on my knee
[03:08.08]I had struck the best friend a man ever had
[03:17.52]I cried so I scarcely could see
[03:26.71]Old Shep he has gone where the good doggies go
[03:36.13]And no more with old Shep will I roam
[03:44.92]But if dogs have a heaven there's one thing I know
[03:54.77]Old Shep has a wonderful home
