lyrics

(How Can you Shoot) Your Best Friend J.Davey 2014

(Chorus)
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?

(Verse 1)
It was true love that you found
When you picked him at the pound,
It was hard core puppy love,
right from the start.

(Chorus)
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?

(Verse 2)
He would treat you as no other,
Like a dedicated lover,
A life long crush, you thought,
Would never end.

(Chorus)
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?

(Verse 3)
He brought the best of luck,
as he rode inside your truck,
While the wife and kids,
Rode in the cargo box.

(Chorus)
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?
How, Can you Shoot, Your Best Friend?

(Verse 4)
It gave you a cold shiver,
When Doc said it was his liver,
a stab wound to the heart,
That never mends.

(Chorus)
How, Can you Shoot Your Best Friend?
How, Can you Shoot Your Best Friend?

(Verse 5)

It was a cold day in November,
that your destined to remember,
when you laid him down to rest,
Beneath his tree.

(Chorus)
How, Can you Shoot Your Best Friend?
How, Can you Shoot Your Best Friend?
