Oh, Yes, Oh

Oh, Yes, Oh - Kingston Trio

I met a nice old man today oh yes oh and he sure

Had a lot to say a good long time ago

I've led a soldier's occupation oh yes oh in every part of

This big nation a good long time ago

I've seen the world and roamed its placed oh yes oh

I guess I've been in a million places a good long time ago

But there are times when soldiering gets lonely you long for friendly company

So when you find an unfamiliar city here's advice that always worked for me

When your train gets into town oh yes oh just make a bee

Line to the pound a good long time ago

Don't just wander helter skelter oh yes oh seek the nearest

Animal shelter a good long time ago

You soon will find the truest of companions a little dog can melt

A heart of stone

Just when you think you're up a dreary canyon a puppy's

Love can bring you close to home

Find a store and buy some twine oh yes oh now tie the doggie

To the line a good long time ago

Thus prepared for any weather oh yes oh dog and man will

Stand together a good long time ago

For mothers warn their daughters of the dangers of soldiers

In their quest for girls

Never never speak to strangers unless their from the canine world

A sweet young maid in passing by oh yes oh saw my smile but

Made no reply a good long time ago

The puppy fixed his gaze upon her oh yes oh two steps more

And she was a goner a good long time ago

The sands of time have swept away the heart aches the tears

The parting and the pain

The pup I gave her for a keep sake will always remind me of

What's her name what's her name
