In celebration of National Dog Day on August 26th. The devotion between human and dog knows no boundary. Where would we be without each other.
The old man could barely walk Bent over on his cane And there beside him Man's Best Friend It wasn't in him to complain. One-half a step -sheer agony For the old man on his cane But he must walk His Best Friend's walk, Each day it was the same. The labored pace was not a race It scarcely was a walk But man's Best Friend Kept pace with him Along each city block. Friends never ever let you down Devotion! That's the deal And man's Best Friend Until the end Is right there at his heel. The fact is plain for all to see They're comrades sun or rain Man's Best Friend And Best Friend's man Are on their walk again. Friends can and will endure the pace And love ignores the pain Man's Best Friend He will wait For the Old Man on his cane.
