Dog

My brother had a dog named DOG Certainly no pedigree Took him from the pound, just signed a log This dog, he named Dog, was free You can be sure this dog wasn’t dumb Smart as any pure breed And like most dogs he’d eat every crumb He got big; grew like a weed I chuckled when visiting their house When Big “J” called for his pet Those were strange words that came from his mouth I can remember them yet DOG! DOG! Come here DOG! DOG, come on home! He called out from his back door Then DOG came trotting back with a bone Which he soon dropped on the floor DOG had a good life, lived to be ten A family member was he When I think about DOG, I still grin Should a been SPOT, seems to me
