Píseň: Old King

Interpret:
Neil Young
Album:
Dreamin' Man Live '92
King went a-runnin' after deer
Wasn't scared of jumpin'
off the truck in high gear
King went a-sniffin'
and he would go
Was the best old hound dog
I ever did know.


I had a dog and his name was King
I told the dog about everything
There in my truck the dog and I
Then one day the King up and died.


Then I thought about
the times we had
Once when I kicked him
when he was bad
Old King sure meant a lot to me
But that hound dog is history.


King went a-runnin' after deer
Wasn't scared of jumpin'
off the truck in high gear
King went a-sniffin'
and he would go
Was the best old hound dog
I ever did know.


That old King was a friend of mine
Never knew a dog
that was half as fine
I may find one, you never do know
'Cause I still got a long way to go.


I had a dog and his name was King
I told the dog about everything
Old King sure meant a lot to me
But that hound dog is history.


King went a-howlin' after deer
Wasn't scared of jumpin'
off the truck in high gear
King went a-sniffin'
and he would go
Was the best old hound dog
I ever did know.
