[Intro]
E A E B7 E A E B7 E
[Verse]
B7
I met a nice old man today, oh, yes, oh
E
And he sure had a lot to say, a good long time ago
B7
I've led a soldier's occupation, oh, yes, oh
E
In every part of this big nation, a good long time ago
B7
I've seen the world and roamed its places, oh, yes, oh
E
I guess I've been in a million places, a good long time ago
[Verse]
A E
But there are times when soldiering gets lonely
B7 E
You long for friendly company
A E
So when you find an unfamiliar city
B7 E
Here's advice that always worked for me
[Verse]
B7
When your train gets into town, oh, yes, oh
E
Just make a beeline for the pound, a good long time ago
B7
Don't just wander helter-skelter, oh, yes, oh
E
Seek the nearest animal shelter, a good long time ago
[Verse]
A E
You soon will find the truest of companions
B7 E
A little dog can melt a heart of stone
A E
Just when you think you're up a dreary canyon
B7 E
A puppy's love can bring you close to home
[Verse]
B7
Find a store and buy some twine, oh, yes, oh
E
Now tie the doggie to the line, a good long time ago
B7
Thus prepared for any weather, oh, yes, oh
E
Dog and man will stand together, a good long time ago
[Verse]
A E
For mothers warn their daughters of the dangers
B7 E
Of soldiers in their quest for girls
A E
Never, never speak to strangers
B7 E
Unless they're from the canine world
[Verse]
B7
A sweet young maid in passing by, oh, yes, oh
E
Saw my smile but made no reply, a good long time ago
B7
The puppy fixed his gaze upon her, oh, yes, oh
E
Two steps more and she was a goner, a good long time ago
[Verse]
A E
The sands of time have swept away the heartaches
B7 E
The tears, the parting, and the pain
A E
The little pup I gave her for a keepsake
B7 E
Will always remind me of what's-her-name (what's-her-name?)
