  • Words & Music by Hank Snow
  • Broken hearted and so sad, golden curls all wet with tears,
  • 'twas a picture of sorrow to see.
  • Kneeling close to the side of his pal and only pride,
  • A little lad these words he told me.
  • He was such a lovely doggie and to me he was such fun,
  • but today as we played by the way
  • A drunken man got mad at him because he barked in joy,
  • He beat him and he's dying here today.
  • Will you call the doctor please and tell him if he comes right now,
  • he'll save my precious doggie 'cause I'll pray.
  • Then he stroked the fluffy head but his little pal was dead,
  • Just a shiver and he slowly passed away.
  • 4th and 5th verse are spoken
  • He didn't know his dog had died, so I told him as he cried
  • "Come with me son we'll get that doctor right away"
  • "But I can't leave him here alone, I must get my doggie home
  • So while you're gone I'll kneel beside him, sir and I'll pray."
  • But when I returned he had his little pal upon his knee
  • And the teardrops they were blinding his big blue eyes,
  • "You're too late, sir my doggie's dead and no help can save him now
  • But I'll meet my precious Buddy up in the sky."
  • By a tiny narrow grave, where the willows sadly wave,
  • are these words on a shingle of pine:
  • "Little Buddy rest in peace, God will watch you thru' the years,
  • 'Cause I told Him in my prayers that you were mine."
