A song to celebrate the relationship between dogs and man
|
The K9 Crew are a group of young people from East Cambridgeshire, UK, who are regularly involved in projects and activities with the K9Project.
The K9 Project works with dogs and the young people who attend all like dogs. They like dogs a lot! They have been involved in fundraising activities and they are currently raising money for Canine Partners and Nowzad dogs. Recently they have taken part in activities like sponsored dog walks, charity market stalls and cake sales at schools. This time they decided to do something different and write a song to celebrate the relationship between dogs and man, as well as to highlight the large numbers of dogs who are abandoned in this country. This was quite a brave step as none of the young people had ever sung in front of anyone else before and they had certainly not made a record! The young people wrote the lyrics after watching films about Nowzad Dogs, assistance dogs, and abandoned dogs. Maria and Paul composed and arranged the music and Maria sung along with the group.
Proceeds from the song (released on CD with 4 page booklet) will be donated to Nowzad Dogs and Canine Partners and an online download will also be available.
This project and the completed song was made possible by the East Cambridgeshire Community Development Fund, wonderful support, guidance and creativity from Maria Daines and Paul Killington, support from the young peoples’ school - Witchford Village College, and the K9 project staff and dogs - Kevin, Chris, Ruby, Taz, Billy, Cassie, Buck and Izzy!

'One Dog One Life'
One dog, one life, one voice, one choice
Must trust must help, I need your help.
We help the human every day
We are your friend in every way
We love to run, we love to play
But I must ask why can't you stay?
The soldiers found me in the dust
Kilo company taught me trust
They gave me hope and one more chance
To live my life, that precious chance...
I was so tired and on the roam
I hoped one day to find my happy home
When people leave and say goodbye
My tears are wet, I hate to cry...
So I will give you all my trust
All I need is a little luck
You changed my life, I was alone
You are my all, now you're my home
One dog, one life, one voice, one choice
Must trust must help, I need your help
One heart, one hand, one hope, one friend
One heart to break, one heart to mend.
One dog, one life, one voice, one choice
Must trust must help, I need your help
One heart, one hand, one hope, one friend
One heart to break, one heart to mend.
One dog, one life, one voice, one choice
Must trust must help, I need your help
One heart, one hand, one hope, one friend
One heart to break, one heart to mend.
