Spanish moss is falling down the walls of my head
Like upon the little house we used to live in by the river’s bed
Warm water brimming from the side of my eye
It happens every time I think about your muzzle touch on this hand of mine
Your empty kennel’s left out at the back of the yard
To find another friend like you, God I will never do, I’m gonna miss it hard
I never will forget the barking sound in the night
Every time the county train came up and round the bend along the railroad line
Oh Heavenly Dog
Have you found another master
To feed you fine
From a bowl in paradise
Oh Heavenly Dog
I send you lovin’ over yonder
You never bit none
Tell me why you had to die
I stuck a little wooden cross into the earth by the hill
Put your portrait in a golden frame, with little flowers
Shaped into We love you Bill
And every sunday evening when the cold wind blows
I sing about the times we had for me to think of you right everywhere I go
Oh Heavenly Dog
Have you found another master
To feed you fine
From a bowl in paradise
Oh Heavenly Dog
I send you loving over yonder
You never bit none
Tell me why you had to die
