Old Rattler

歌詞

Rattler was a good old dog as blind as he could be But every night at suppertime I believe that dog could see Here Rattler here here Rattler here Call old Rattler from the barn here Rattler here Rattler breaked the other night I thought he treed a coon When I come to find him he's barkin' at the moon Rattler was a friendly dog even though he was blind He wouldn't hurt a living thing he was so very kind One night I saw a big fat coon climb into a tree I called Ol' Rattler right away to fetch him down for me But Rattler wouldn't fetch for me because he liked that coon I saw them walking paw in paw later by the light of the moon Grandpa had a muley cow muley since she was born It took a jaybird forty years to fly from horn to horn Now old Rattler's dead and gone like all the good dogs do Don't put on the dog yourself or you'll be going there too
