Incorrigible you are, but your love shines forth
A puppy you will be, filling our hearts with mirth
Best friend you've been for a good many years
I look forward to seeing you again with floppy ears

I love you kanna from the very bottom of my heart
Come back and show us the way to find peace on Earth
I remember the fun we had and now you've turned 70
Think of our Lord as you pray for bliss unto eternity

You've mentored generations in your own sweet way
I remember the music and us dancing with a gentle sway
Thick as thieves from the start we have plenty of good memories
You helped me appreciate beautiful people such as these
