「歌曲」Old Shep-Elvis Presley、D.R

When I was a lad, I had a dog,
His name was Old Shep, and he was true.
He'd follow me through rain and snow,
And I'd feed him from my hand, you know.

He'd chase the cattle, run the field,
And bring the sheep in, never yield.
But one day, he grew old and gray,
And I knew his time was on its way.

I took him out to the hills one day,
Where the grass was green and the sky was gray.
I said, "Old Shep, you're my best friend,
But I know your life must meet its end."

I held his head, I stroked his fur,
And I whispered words he'd always hear.
He licked my hand, then closed his eyes,
And I cried a tear for that faithful friend of mine.

Now I'm old and gray, just like him,
And I often think of those days with him.
I know he's waiting on the other side,
Where the fields are green and the rivers wide.

So if you see a dog, old and true,
Remember Old Shep, and the love he knew.
He was more than a pet, he was a friend,
And his memory will never end.
