I had a yellow dog, when I was but a lad
She had a white spot on her back and a tail she loved to wag
How I loved that girl, when we'd run and play
Till the Northern Highway came along and took my girl away
When I grew up to be a man, a young girl caught my eye
She had the kind of beauty, to make a strong man cry
and though I'd only see her every now and then
Just long enough to ask myself, will I see her again
Chorus
the girls we love, they come and go, sometimes without a plan
Then I'm left to ask myself will I see her again
Will I see her again,I'm left to ask
Will I see her again, before my days are past
and I'll shed a tear when I think about her every now and then
Just long enough to ask myself, will I see her again
verse 2
Leah was a beauty who led a troubled life
Not before becoming a loving mother and a wife
There is no accounting between a woman and a man
Think it might have been a little bit more than she was made to stand
I learned to count my blessings, when a daughter came my way
I watched her grow and blossom each passing day
Now you know its only natural, one day she'll find a man
then I'll be left to ask myself, will I see her again
You see I've been around the block, I've lived a ife and some
I've learned to think about these things when my day is done
I may shed a tear in thought every now and then
As I'm left to ask myself will I see her again
Chorus
for the girls we love, they come and go, sometimes without a plan
Then I'm left to ask myself will I see her again
Will I see her again,I'm left to ask
Will I see her again, before my days are past
and I'll shed a tear when I think about her every now and then
Just long enough to ask myself, will I see her again
Just long enough to ask myself, will I see her again
