Author/Artist/Singer: Hank Snow
Music Title/Track: Old Rover
Theme ID: 3990
Album: N/A


Arranged and recorded by Hank Snow



Two little boys and an old family dog

By the banks of a stream sat one day

The boys decided old rover must die

A nusance well out of the way

The poor old fellow stood close by their side

His fate he couldn't quite understand

With a wag of his tail and a half sobbing wail

He reached out and licked at their hands



Remember I'm your best friend, boys

Oh, no one could love you so true

Though you may beat me and bang me today

Tomorrow I'll play games with you

I know I am old and quite in the way

But life to me still holds a charm

We'', I've only one favor to ask of you, boys

Let me spend my last days on the farm



With a rope, round his neck they were ready to tie

His pleading seemed of no avail

Just then one of the boys slipped and fell in the stream

The other stood by, deadly pale

A loud cry for help and old rover plunged in

No sight of old age or delay

And as he slowly swam back to the shore

The waves dashing by in his face



(Remember I'm your best friend, boys)

(Oh, no one could love you so true)

Though you may beat me and bang me today

Tomorrow I'll play games with you

I know I am old and quite in the way

But life to me still holds a charm

Well, I've only one favor to ask of you, boys

Let me spend my last days on the farm
