Old Dog Blue
Quelle: Spotify
I'm goin' back to where I come
I'm goin' back to where I come
I'm goin' back to Giles County
My wife died and left me a bounty
Way all them pretty girls ganged around
That's why I'm goin' to Giles County
Had an old dog and his name was Blue
You know Blue was mighty true
You know Blue was a good old dog
Blue treed a 'possum in a hollow log
You can know from that he's a good old dog
Blue treed a 'possum out on a limb
Blue looked at me and I looked at him
Grabbed that 'possum and put him in a sack
Don't move Blue till I get back
He rang, he rang here
He rang, he rang here
Who's been here since I been gone
Little bitty girl with the red dress on
Who's been here since I been gone
Little bitty girl with the red dress on
Old Blue's feet was big and round
Old Blue's feet was big and round
Never 'lowed a 'possum to touch the ground
Me and Blue went out on a hunt
Blue treed a 'possum in a hollow stump
You know Blue was a good old dog
Blue treed a 'possum in a hollow log
You can know from that he's a good old dog
But old Blue died and I dug his grave
I dug his grave with a silver spade
I let him down with a golden chain
And every link I called his name
Oh Blue you good dog you
Oh Blue you good dog you
Blue laid down and died like a man
Blue laid down and died like a man
Now he's treein' 'possums up in the promised land
I'm goin' to tell you this and let you know
Old Blue's gone where good dogs go
When I hear old Blue bark
When I hear old Blue bark
Blue's treed a 'possum in Noah's ark
Blue's treed a 'possum in Noah's ark
