NELLIE’S SONG
(A song for children – young and old)
Music and lyrics by Dan O’Brien, © July 18, 2012

1)
Way out in the country, born on a farm
You learn how to nurture, and keep things from harm,
Growing up in the country, you learn how to love
All of the creatures we’re sent from above.

2) 
The chickens and rooster, the goats and the cow,
The comical donkey, and the heavy old sow,
The horses and cattle that lay down with the sheep,
And seem to enjoy all the company they keep.

(Refrain)
But doggies are special, and pussycats too,
They’re the guardian angels God sends me and you,
Four-legged angels sent from above
To teach us about unconditional love.

3)
My faithful dog, Nellie, curls up close to me,
She’s my constant companion, and my best friend, you see,
She stays by my side thru the night and each day,
And waits by the door whenever I’ve gone away.

(Refrain)
Yes, doggies are special, and pussycats too,
They’re the guardian angels God sends me and you,
Four-legged angels sent from above
To teach us about unconditional love.
