OLD KING
As recorded by Neil Young on "Harvest Moon" (1992)

[Chorus] King went a-runnin' after deer,
Wasn't scared of jumping off the truck in high gear.
King went a-sniffing 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. [Chorus]

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. [Chorus]
