Goodbye Old Friend

 

Goodbye old friend

You were a really great dog

Goodbye old friend

You know I loved you lots

 

You helped me make it through so many days

And I’m oh so glad to say you were my dog

 

Goodbye old friend

You were the greatest dog

Goodbye old friend

You know I’ll miss you lots

I still remember when you ate that frog

And I’m glad to say I knew you

And you were my dog

(alternate drafts of the last verses)

 

The love you gave leaves me truly agog

Halleluiah praise the lord

You were my dog

 

The love you gave leaves me agog

I’m just sorry there aren’t more words

That rhyme with dog
