A dog

And a dog followed me back
He gave chase like
A twister in the field
Between the nettles
And the Elderberry
Around the Spinney he happily played

And a dog he followed me back
And this hound he ran around
And this mutt he moved his butt
He wagged his tail
And shook his head
And a dog he followed me back

A Springer Spaniel
Louis the 16th century style
Curly locks and floppy ears
Bounding about
To my cheers
Go back home said I to him
Too far have you roamed
You'll be lost at sea

He listened not to my pleas
So I returned with him
To his Farm stead lea

And a dog, he followed me back
Across the field
Under skies of blue black
He was free
