Sorry, I can't supply any more than that. |

21 Feb 00 - 05:12 PM (#182360) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: old dog songs From: GUEST,Arkie My favorite is the "Hound Dog Song". The campaign song of Champ Clark of Missouri when he made his run for president (of the United States, that is). Legend has it that there is some controversy about whether the song came from Arkansas or Missouri. The folks in Missouri claim it came from Arkansas. The folks in Arkansas say "no way" it came from Missouri. Actually there are several places that lay claim to the song. All having folk who claim to know the principal characters, even the dog, Jim. There is also a song called "Dog" which Martha Adcock claimes to have written about her husband, Eddie. Good song, but not very old. |

21 Feb 00 - 06:30 PM (#182423) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: old dog songs From: kendall I recorded Old Shep on Folk Legacy 25 years ago, and thought it was sad until I ran across Old Rover by Hank Snow and Old Gilbert by Slim Dusty of OZ. Those two are real wrenchers. |

21 Feb 00 - 07:07 PM (#182438) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: old dog songs From: Lanfranc "Old Brown Dog" by Ralph McTell from his "You, Well Meaning, brought me here" Album. Some say it's a bit of a dog, but I like it! "Dogs at Midnight" by Tom Paxton - it's about mining, but dogs do get a mention. "How much is that doggie in the window?" from my childhood.

21 Dec 01 - 10:05 PM (#614528) Subject: ADD: Rough and Reddy.. by Jerry Rasmussen^^ From: Jerry Rasmussen Rough was old and grizzled, with a muzzle white as snow But every hunting season, old Rough was set to go With legs so short and stumpy, he'd stand on his hind feet Just to look across the open fields, when the grass was thick and deep
Rough was all confused when they first brought Reddy home
Rough would take him hunting, down by the old fence row
It seems like only yesterday, when Rough just up and died
And now the frost is on the vine, and the wind is stinging cold Rough and Reddy.. by Jerry Rasmussen^^ Two old dogs for the price of one. This one's for you, Wolfgang.. |

22 Dec 01 - 08:55 AM (#614706) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: old dog songs From: kendall this is a poem by William Levenworth: Yellow Dog You keep your lofty abstract god, Myself, I choose a child of Pan, An ordinary yellow dog Who does for love what mortals can, Who stretches out her mortal frame Determined, although she's lame For one last walk beside her man. Whose ashes grace the forest way We roamed together yesterday. And, to the wilder god I pray: Give her soul some woods to run, A stick to fetch, a patch of sun. And near her, Pan, preserve a place For me, come from a lesser race.
