Four Legged Friend (Roy Rogers cover)
original by: Roy Rogers

from The Speakeasy Serenaders: Songs Of The People (2013 April 30) (2:24)
Four legged friend, a four legged friend
She'll never let you down
Honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful one-two-three-four legged friend

A two legged hombre's as worthless as sand
He'll smile like a saint with a gun in his hand
He'll promise to stick by your side like a pal
But he'll also promise the same to your gal

Four legged friend, a four legged friend
She'll never let you down
Honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful one-two-three-four legged friend

A woman's like cactus and cactus can hurt
She's just a tight-waisted winky-eyed flirt
She'll soon have your land and your pride and your gold
And bury you deep long before you grow old

Four legged friend, a four legged friend
She'll never let you down
Honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful one-two-three-four legged friend

Who carries your burden, who carries your load
On tumbleweed land or a long dusty road
Who asks you no questions, who tells you no lies
That four legged friend with the two honest eyes

Four legged friend, a four legged friend
She'll never let you down
Honest and faithful right up to the end
That wonderful one-two-three-four legged friend
That wonderful one-two-three-four legged friend
