Dave Bradley - I'll Always Love a Dog Named Jo Lyrics

You always were such a good dog
Since that day you came to me
Up there at the pack station
Around 9,000 feet

The smallest of the litter
But that wasn't stopping you
Fearless as a wolf
And smarter than some people that I knew

You never caused me any trouble
Never chewed up my shoes
Always told me when you had to go outside
Only barked when you needed to

You knew you were always coming with
Across the country or to the grocery store
All road trips count
If you can put your head out the window

Now my faithful old pal
We've put some years behind
We're getting older every day
And now we're running out of time

I see that limp's getting worse
And your muzzle is going gray
Your hearing is shot
You'd rather sleep now than play

But you still follow me around
Even though it hurts to walk
I'll always take you with me
Don't mind helping you into the truck

I'll always love a dog named Jo
I hate to think our time is coming to an end
It won't be the same without you
Man has never known a better friend
