A STUMP FOR A TAIL

You can't buy loyalty, they say
I bought it though, the other day; You can't buy friendship, tried and true,
Well just the same, I bought that too .I made my bid, and on the spot
Bought love and faith and a whole job lot Of happiness, so all in all
The purchase price was pretty small .I bought a single trusting heart,
That gave devotion from the start.
If you think these things are not for sale,
Buy a brown-eyed puppy with a stump for a tail.
