Neil Young - Old King lyrics

King went a-runnin' after deer Wasn't scared of jumpin' off the truck in high gear King went a-sniffin' and he would go Was the best old hound dog I ever did know. I had a dog and his name was King I told the dog about everything There in my truck the dog and I Then one day the King up and died. Then I thought about the times we had Once when I kicked him when he was bad Old King sure meant a lot to me But that hound dog is history. King went a-runnin' after deer Wasn't scared of jumpin' off the truck in high gear King went a-sniffin' and he would go Was the best old hound dog I ever did know. That old King was a friend of mine Never knew a dog that was half as fine I may find one, you never do know 'Cause I still got a long way to go. I had a dog and his name was King I told the dog about everything Old King sure meant a lot to me But that hound dog is history. King went a-howlin' after deer Wasn't scared of jumpin' off the truck in high gear King went a-sniffin' and he would go Was the best old hound dog I ever did know.
