Lyrics
REIVER THE RETRIEVER
Written by: Dave Zobl
She was the runt of the litter
And all day long folks passed her by
I knew right away I had to pick her
When she looked up at me with those big brown eyes
I took her home and she ate my couch
And shared herself all over my floors
Despite all that there was no doubt
I never had a friend like Reiver before
CHORUS:
Reiver the Retriever
Always there when I need her
Sent from above to remind me of
Whenever push comes to shove
It still comes down to love
Every evening right around six
We?d walk away the day?s cares
She?d run out ahead of me and stop real quick
Turn around and make sure I was still there
And no matter what I had go on
I could count on Reiver to be by my side
Like the melody to an old Beatles song
Always there helping me get by
CHORUS:
Reiver?s up in heaven right now
Drinking beer and eating steak
But I swear I can feel her somehow
Lickin?my ear letting me know everything is O.K.
And reminding me every dog has their day
