My Best Friend
Dog is God spelled backwards
The purest form of love
And if you've had a furry friend
You'll know what I speak of
You came into my life
Giving love that had no end
You'd greet me with your wagging tail
Whenever I came in
You had all kinds of nicknames
Like Bubba and ornery boy
You chewed up all the toys I gave
You brought me years of joy
You left without a warning
You were always full of life
I'm sure you got the wings you earned
When God came for you that night
Time will never lessen
The tears that fill my eyes
For when I think of you
My furry little guy
I'll go on through this life
Always missing my best friend
Any man would be so lucky
To have so true a friend
And if Heaven holds my mansion
When I open of its doors
My furry friend I'll meet and greet
We'll never part no more
