Willie “The Oil Dog"Now that you are riding that Derek in the sky
Our hearts sink heavy as we bid good bye
You loved the ranch, you loved to roam free
At the rig for dinner, chewing bones with glee
Your whimper could make our hearts sink low
Till we realized finally, it was all for show
Those summer nights on the porch drinking beer
They were always made better with Willie Nelson near
You had a way of lifting spirits with your crooked trot
Lack of passion for life and people, you suffered not
Your legend will continue to grow in the land of the Kaw
That Mighty Oil Hound with the crooked paw
You had a dynamic personality, larger than any other
You were Willie the Oil Dog and we will miss you brother.
Written by my brother, Jay, who hopefully won't care that I posted this on my blog. It was just to good not to share. Willie will be missed!
