Why Me?




I don't know why I'm homeless and no one cares for me,
I've tried to be a good little pup, good as any dog can be.
I had a home for a little while but one day I heard them say,
"You can't keep this female dog around", so they took me away.


They left me on a lonely road, no shelter and food for a pup,
I waited each day for their return, but now I've given up.
There's only one that knows I'm here, that knows of my awful plight,
A kitten that searches for food through the day, I hear her cry at night.


She lives beneath a pile of wood, so small, so scared, so thin.
To abandon a kitten so small and frail seems a terrible sin.
Help us dear God, this kitten and me, so hungry and so alone,
Guide some kind soul to find us and give us a home, sweet home.
