Oh Yes Oh |
I met a nice old man today, oh, yes, oh, and he sure had a lot to say, |
a good long time ago |
I’ve led a soldier’s occupation, oh, yes, oh, in every part of this big nation, |
a good long time ago |
I’ve seen the world and roamed its placed, oh, yes, oh. |
I guess I’ve been in a |
million places, a good long time ago |
But there are times when soldiering gets lonely, you long for friendly company |
So when you find an unfamiliar city, here’s advice that always worked for me |
When your train gets into town, oh, yes, oh, just make a bee line to the pound, |
a good long time ago |
Don’t just wander helter-skelter, oh, yes, oh, seek the nearest animal shelter, |
a good long time ago |
You soon will find the truest of companions. |
A little dog can melt a heart of |
stone |
Just when you think you’re up a dreary canyon, a puppy’s love can bring you |
close to home |
Find a store and buy some twine, oh, yes, oh. |
Now tie the doggie to the line, |
a good long time ago |
Thus prepared for any weather, oh, yes, oh. |
Dog and man will stand together, |
a good long time ago |
For mothers warn their daughters of the dangers of soldiers in their quest for |
girls |
Never, never speak to strangers unless their from the canine world |
A sweet young maid in passing by, oh, yes, oh, saw my smile but made no reply, |
a good long time ago |
The puppy fixed his gaze upon her, oh, yes, oh, two steps more and she was a |
goner, a good long time ago |
The sands of time have swept away the heart aches, the tears, the parting, |
and the pain |
The pup I gave her for a keep sake will always remind me of what’s her name |
(what's her name?) |
