BARNEY

The Music that inspired me
Sis and I listened to Patti Page
"How much is that Doggy in the Window?"
I had no money for a dog
Barney followed me home from school one day
WE went door to door for a week
No one claimed my litte brown puppy
But Barney did not stay little long
Someone said your dog is a German Shepard
I had no more loyal friend than Barney
Still today it was one of the worst snowstorms,
!951, a foot and a half, I was lost
Two things I loved more than anything
In the world were Barney and my bicycle
Frozen I pushed it up this steep hill
I couldn't see a thing I was frozen
All I could hear was Barney barking leading
me a mile in the snow so:
"How much is that doggy in the window?"
Barney, he was priceless!
