(Refrain)

Thirteen original pets
But you were the best
You were the first
You were the last
And you were the one
I love the most

(First Verse)

You were there
For my childhood
I grew up
With you by my side
Without you there
At that time
I don't think I'd be the same person
That I am right now
You made me who I am
A dog lover today
An artist today
You gave my ideas

(Refrain)
Thirteen original pets
But you were the best
You were the first
You were the last
And you were the one
I love the most

(Second Verse)

You are part of my history
Without you it wouldn't be the same
I can see your grave
From the view of my window
You were active
Until the day you died
I wish I could tell you
That I've been alright
I didn't cry when you died
I don't take family for granted
Though you were a pet
Doesn't mean you weren't family
Just because I didn't cry
Does not mean I wasn't sad
But hey at least I know
That you aren't suffering
I miss you of course
And I will for days to come
(Refrain)

Thirteen original pets
But you were the best
You were the first
You were the last
And you were the one
I love the most
