Recorded by Hank Snow



When I was a lad

And old Shep was a pup

Over hills and meadows we'd stray

Just a boy and his dog

We were both full of fun

We grew up together that way



I remember the time at the old swimmin' hole

When I would have drowned beyond doubt

But old Shep was right there

To the rescue he came

He jumped in and then pulled me out



As the years fast did roll

Old Shep he grew old

His eyes were fast growing dim

And one day the doctor looked at me and said

I can do no more for your dog



With hands that were trembling

I picked up my gun

And aimed it at Shep's faithful head

I just couldn't do it

I wanted to run

I wish they would shoot me instead



He came to my side

And looked up at me

And laid his old head on my knee

I had struck the best friend that a man ever had

I cried so I scarcely could see



Old Shep he has gone

Where the good doggies go

And no more with old Shep will I roam

But if dogs have a heaven

There's one thing I know

Old Shep has a wonderful home

    "Well come all you children give a listen to me let me tell you bout a new boogie beat

  • Music Makin Mama from Memphis
    "Listen to a story about a gal I know

    She's sweeter than the music when she tickles the strings
    Sweeter than the flowers down in New Orleans..."
  • The Gold Rush Is Over
    "Oh! the gold rush is over so honey bye bye
