Until The Bittersweet End

Back atcha Stoney @StoneFlowers !! And as Rainy Day Man says, 'the battle of the bards is on'. Wrote this rather quickly upon seeing Stoney's latest drinkin'-doggie-dittie, "Life Of A Dog". Probably needs some metering but here goes regardless. And now I'm running late for work, but I KNOW you KNOW how that is when it comes to a song the world could blow up.

UNTIL THE BITTERSWEET END

[Verse 1]

The friends I got, I can count on less than one hand

But I got one best friend

Known as the all-time best friend of man

Until the bittersweet end

 

[Chorus 1]

Until the bittersweet end

Until the bittersweet end

My hound dog, Lucy is a mighty fine friend

Until the bittersweet end


[Verse 2]

And speaking of the bittersweet end, it was indeed

When I lost Mizz Jozie

With me fourteen of her sixteen years, how I grieved

Like that pocket full ‘a posies

 

[Chorus 2]

Until the bittersweet end

Until the bittersweet end

My hound dog, Jozie was a mighty fine friend

Until the bittersweet end

 

So, if you’re lookin’ for a friend for life, look no further

She’ll love you unconditionally

Head on down, today to your local animal shelter

Love at first sight is the magic key

 

[Chorus 1]

Until the bittersweet end

Until the bittersweet end

My hound dog, Lucy is a mighty fine friend

Until the bittersweet end


[Verse 1/Tag]

The friends I got, I can count on less than one hand

But I got one best friend

Known as the all-time best friend of man

Until the bittersweet end

Until the bittersweet end, my friend

Until the bittersweet end.
