#94 Sweet Pup of Mine

[Verse]

She’s got a smile that lights up the straw

Holds her littlest one when the cold winds call

One eye blue like the morning sky

One eye brown like the earth so wide

[Pre-chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

Smallest paw print but the grandest dream

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

From tiny runt to K-9 supreme

[Verse]

I was the smallest, they called me weak

Dad turned away, couldn’t even speak

But Mama whispered through the night

“Gunther my boy, you’re my shining light”

[Pre-chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

Tire rolling wild, mountain climb so high

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

Heart of a warrior, reaching for the sky

[Verse]

Rolled that tire, crashed into Dad’s side

He yelled loud but I felt alive

Climbed Divine Mountain, faced the wolf and bear

MJ said “Look at the fighter there”

Alexander learned to open his heart

Now he stands proud, watching me do my part

[Bridge]

And when the pain tried to break this little frame

I rose up stronger, I refused to be the same

The smaller the paw, the louder the roar

Now I’m wearing that badge, forevermore

[Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

From whelping box to the thin blue line

Oh, oh, oh, sweet pup o’ mine

Living the dream that was always mineWhere do we go now?

Where do we go?

From the smallest runt to saving the day

Sweet pup o’ mine…

Where do we go now?

Sweet pup o’ mine…

The grander the dream…
