Magnum

Intro - acoustic guitar, harmonica

Verse 1

When you first came home, a pup so grand,

A Doberman with watchful, gentle hand.

For little Emma, you were the best care,

A loyal guardian, beyond compare.

With sleek black coat and shining, honest eyes,

You watched over us beneath blue skies.

A silent promise in your steady gaze,

Through all our happy, sun-drenched days.

Chorus

Oh, Magnum, my best friend, twelve years we knew,

Every sunrise, every dream came true.

You were the heart of our Burbank rancho home,

Now a quiet trail where memories roam.

Verse 2

I miss our talks, beneath the evening stars,

No need for words, you healed all my scars.

As if you knew each thought, each spoken plea,

A silent wisdom, just you and me.

The rancho mascot, proud and strong and true,

A trail dog leading, forever with you.

Through canyons deep and fields so wide,

Always walking right by my side.

Chorus

Oh, Magnum, my best friend, twelve years we knew,

Every sunrise, every dream came true.

You were the heart of our Burbank rancho home,

Now a quiet trail where memories roam.

Bridge

Others may come, with paws so soft and deep,

New faithful hearts, my promises to keep.

But none could ever fill the space you made,

Your loyal spirit, never to fade.

Banjo Solo

Chorus

Oh, Magnum, my best friend, twelve years we knew,

Every sunrise, every dream came true.

You were the heart of our Burbank rancho home,

Now a quiet trail where memories roam.

Outro

Now I see you in the sun's warm glow,

On emerald grass, where gentle breezes blow.

With Emma there, in slumber soft and deep,

My loyal Magnum, eternal sleep.

Outro - acoustic guitar fade
