Dudley

Intro - ukulele, acoustic guitar

Verse 1

I remember well the sound of your paws,

A clipity clop, ignoring all laws.

Your beggar cup antics, a charming old trick,

You'd lean into me, making my heart click.

A yellow lab's spirit, so gentle and true,

In those early days, my world felt brand new.

Chorus

Oh, Dudley, my darling, a gift from above,

Fifteen long years filled with pure, endless love.

Your tail a bright beacon, a sunny hello,

The best boy I've known, watching you grow.

We celebrate you now, with smiles and sweet tears,

For the joy that you brought through all of our years.

Verse 2

From our "good morning!" routine, a start to each day,

To your eager greeting in your own special way.

The waggle of your tail, a joyful embrace,

I treasured your breathing, your comforting pace.

Your love of walkies, the pure simple glee,

Every minute with you was precious to me.

Chorus

Oh, Dudley, my darling, a gift from above,

Fifteen long years filled with pure, endless love.

Your tail a bright beacon, a sunny hello,

The best boy I've known, watching you grow.

We celebrate you now, with smiles and sweet tears,

For the joy that you brought through all of our years.

Bridge

Thank you for all of the love you did share,

And the life lessons learned beyond all compare.

You were by far my greatest gift, it is true,

My dearest best friend, I'll always miss you.

Instrumental - ukulele, glockenspiel

Final Chorus

Oh, Dudley, my darling, a gift from above,

Fifteen long years filled with pure, endless love.

Your tail a bright beacon, a sunny hello,

The best boy I've known, watching you grow.

We celebrate you now, with smiles and sweet tears,

For the joy that you brought through all of our years.

Outro

Now running pain free, a spirit so bright,

Chasing the chipmunks in pure golden light.

Swimming on beaches, where waves gently break,

For Dudley, our sunshine, for goodness sake.

Outro - ukulele fade
