Rocky Is a Cattle Dog

Rocky he’s a Cattle Dog he’s coloured black and blue He always lays around asleep till work he has to do.. Two Preachers came walking up our path to speak their line of spiel They told me of their one true God and did it with some zeal At last they left just one sheep short And headed for the gate Then one turned to look around Cos Rocky bit his mate I thought to drive old Rocky off With whip and curses rare…………."Stock whip good on cattle better on burglars in house".. I cracked the whip and yelled a lot But terrified the pair They thought the Devil on their tail This dog and madman too They leapt in a Ford and did set sail In a cloud of smoke so blue…. Don Johnson Blue heel biting Cattle dog "heeler" or Australian Shepherd great Aussie brown snake killers, some Dingo in em.....very economical watch Dog...
