MJ (Mighty Joe)'s Story
Mighty Joe, the beloved Maltese Shih Tzu cross, was a devoted protector who followed close behind, always ready for snuggles after work and ensuring meals for himself, Willow, and Lincoln were never forgotten. He cherished walks with Willow and Lincoln, finding joy in playing in the grass and playfully chasing people along the fence line. It's hoped that as this favorite "baby" crosses the rainbow bridge, he will be reunited with his mom, grandma, and auntie Reba.

Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica
Verse 1
From the moment you came to my door
A little fluff that I adored
You'd follow me from room to room
Chasing away any shadow of gloom
A tiny guardian, brave and bright
Protecting me with all your might
From family and friends, you'd stand so near
Banishing every little fear
Chorus
Oh, MJ, my sweet Mighty Joe
Fifteen years we watched you grow
A loyal heart, a gentle soul
Making my life wonderfully whole
My baby, my friend, my love so true
Every day was better with you
Verse 2
When the workday's done, the day was through
Our favorite time, just me and you
We'd snuggle close, a perfect peace
Our happy moments would never cease
You'd always know when meals were due
For Willow, Lincoln, and for you
A gentle nudge, a knowing stare
Reminding us that dinner was there
Chorus
Oh, MJ, my sweet Mighty Joe
Fifteen years we watched you grow
A loyal heart, a gentle soul
Making my life wonderfully whole
My baby, my friend, my love so true
Every day was better with you
Bridge
You were my favorite, my baby, so small
I love you with all of my heart, forever and always, standing tall
I hope when you cross the rainbow bridge, so free
You see your mom, your grandma, and Auntie Reba waiting for thee
Harmonica Solo
Final Chorus
Oh, MJ, my sweet Mighty Joe
Fifteen years we watched you grow
A loyal heart, a gentle soul
Making my life wonderfully whole
My baby, my friend, my love so true
Every day was better with you
Outro
You loved your walks with Willow and Lincoln near
Playing in the grass, banishing every fear
Chasing along the fence line, a joyful sight
Now rest in peace, bathed in gentle light
