Luyện nghe bài hát Old Tige

Tige, you were faithful, to the end
Tige, how I you, you were my best friend

Three of army service done and I was headin' home at last
I got to thinking 'bout my dog and things long gone
How old Tige pulled me from a creek when I had no or breath
How he me from the changin' bull that gored my dad to death

As a kid I'd dream of and tremble to my toes
Till old Tige come up to my bed and nudge me his nose
my fears would melt away and Tige would go lie down
I'd drift on back to sleep without sound

The big bus stopped and I got off it was awful and thick with fog
Then something gently nuzzled me and there Tige, my dog
I wondered if my dog had met the bus each day
And all the dreary winter nights since I'd away

Have Tige meet me here like this I was I was glad
'Cause I hadn't needed so much since the day they've buried dad
Too long miles still lay ahead, but what I know
A giant Dam was being where the old road used to go

I the Lord was sending Tige and I followed where he led
Knowing well without his help that I'd be as dead
Tige along this way and that going rough and slow
And I could hear the water a lappin' at the ledges far

Then through the mist, I saw a light and mother in her
And I reached down to pet old Tige, but he there
I'm thankful mom, you had old Tige these lonely years
I owe my life to him, tonight I couldn't help my

You say you wrote me 'bout the Dam God was sure with us
I didn't get your Mom but old Tige met the bus
I hate to tell you son she said but now you've got to
When you it broke his heart, Tige died three years ago

You were my best
