Lying there on the front porch with his head in his paws
Sat the dog whose name was Dusty who lived there at my grandpa's
I said, Grandpa he must be a good one waiting for you, chewing on his bone
Grandpa said, Well, to tell you the truth sometimes I wish he'd just leave me alone
With your grandma gone its just me and him but he sure ain't the best
Sure he'll catch every stick that I throw but sometimes he's just a pest
We had a dog that we called Dozer cause he rooted through the dirt
That night he wandered up so hungry eating cracked corn set out for the birds
Well you can't replace your best buddies
So be good to them while you can
And if you don't show it that lump in your throat
Reminds you, you miss your best friends
He used to run beside my tractor play with the kids in the yard
He'd catch every stick and kill every snake and tree every coon on the farm
Like all dogs Dozer got older and his playing days came to an end
He'd whimper with every step that he took, it hurt to see the suffering of my friend
So I hauled him up to the pasture where he played years ago
I patted his head, said, I'll miss you my friend and I sent him to where the good dogs go
Well Grandpa, he met up with Grandma the morning he passed away
Dusty sat all day on the porch waiting for Grandpa to come out and play
It was evening before we knew, I got there late in the day
Dusty watched as that ambulance hauled his best friend away
