Show us your IVDD warrior(s)
Because I'm "just a dog" you see,
I don't sigh and say "why me"
I just face it - go on living
and play the hand that I've been given
I need you more now, that is true
For there are things I just can't do
The ball you throw I cannot catch
I can't even lift my leg to scratch
Its embarrassing a little
that I may need your help to piddle
But if our roles were in reverse
I'd be proud to be your nurse
But hey I love you more than ever
Me give up well yeah like never
I don't regret what cannot be
With you my friend, I'll just be me
I'm still me within my soul
Where it counts I still am whole
My back is bent and I'm quite lame
but in my heart I'm still the same
