Before the kids 

Before my wife

Before I bought the farm 

and bought into this grown up life

She was there just running on the beach

A wild island baby

A little bit out of reach

With the crazy eyes 

and the coal black hair

A look that said just take me home

and I will always be there





I'm not the first man to ever write 

a song about K9 Love

Not afraid to stand in front of you

today my friends and say it's Jane I love

She won't sit and she won't stay

I say come she runs away

Can't hear worth a damn, but heaven knows

I'm gonna miss her when she goes





Where the water was cold

where the river ran fast

The man said that dip you take 

oh might be your last

She dove in and left me no doubt, no doubt

There was one way in that raging river 

there was no way out

I heard her crying 

as I watched her slip away

now I ain't no hero

but I risked life and limb that day





I'm not the first man to ever write 

a song about K9 Love

Not afraid to stand in front of you

tonight my friends 

and say it's Jane I love

She likes to hunt she likes to kill

she likes the couch even better still

Never gonna win a prize but heaven knows

I'm gonna miss her when she goes





You might think I'm a bit sick

Or maybe I'm a heretic

Maybe I'm just dyslexic but you see

That D O G is like a G O D to me 





I'm not the first man to ever write 

a song about K9 Love

Not afraid to stand in front of you tonight my friends 

and say it's Jane I love 

She won't sit 

and she won't stay

I say come she runs away

Can't hear worth a damn but heavenknows

I'm gonna miss her when she goes
