Ah, caught you smiling at me
That's the way it should be
Like a leaf is to a tree, so fine
Ah, all the good times we had
I sang love songs so glad
Always smiling, never sad, so fine
As we walk down the country lane
I'll be singing a song
Hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees
Telling Mother Nature about you and me
Well if the sunshines so bright
Or on our way it's darkest night
The road we choose is always right, so fine
Ah can your love be so strong
When so many loves go wrong
Will our love go on and on and on and on and on and on
As we walk down the country lane
I'll be singing a song
Hear me calling your name
Hear the wind within the trees
Telling Mother Nature 'bout you and me
My my, la de la, come on now it ain't too far
Tell your friends all around the world
Ain't no companion like a blue eyed merle
Come on now well let me tell ya
What you're missing, missing, 'round them brick walls
So of one thing I am sure
It's a friendship so pure
Angels singing all around, my dog is so fine
Yeah, ain't but one thing to do
Spend my natural life with you
You're the finest dog I knew, so fine
When you're old and your eyes are dim
There ain't no old Shep gonna happen again
We'll still go walking down country lanes
I'll sing the same old songs
Hear me call your name
