Good Dog and True Lyrics

First to come the whipper in and that I'm bound to call you
Keeps the pack together as they gather up around you
Sets them off, draws them in when their b***** day is through
Come the whipper-in, be a good dog and true.
Next to come the terrier man and that I'm bound to call you
Know your quarry, run her to earth through furrow, stream and pasture
Life and death, you speak of respect you feel that fox is due
Come the terrier man, be a good dog and true.

Next to come the houndsman and that I'm bound to call you
Know your pack by name and mark, their ways and whiles and natures
Pair the couples old ,and young but pick the babblers too
Come the houndsman come, be a good dog and true.
Next to come the saboteur and that I'm bound to call you
Risk a life to save a life, with the strength of the law behind you
Rituals, traditions, nowt but killing fields to you
Come the saboteur, be a good dog and true.

CHORUS
Be a good dog and true, ever true to your master
Run a hare, a fox, as long as your good legs can carry you
Keep your nose cold, your tail up, be a credit to your father
And your mother and your pack and all belonging to you.
