| lyric | 1. I had a dog and his name was Blue,
And I bet you five dollars
he’s a good one tooo.
Come on Blue you good dog you.
2. Grabbed my ax and I tooted my horn
And I went to get a possum in the new ground corn
Come on Blue oh you can come too,
Come on Blue yes you can come too.
3. Old Blue treed and I went to see
And there sat a possum in the cimmon-tree
Come on Blue you good dog you,
Go on Blue you good dog you.
4. Blue grinned at me, I grinned at him
I shook out the possum Blue took him in
Go on Blue you good dog you,
Go on Blue you good dog you.
5. Baked that possum nice and brown
And I Iayed them sweet potatoes round and round
Come on Blue you can have some too,
Come on Blue you can have some too.
6. Well Old Blue died and he died so hard
’Til he shook the ground in my backyard
Go on Blue you good dog you,
Go on Blue you good dog you.
7. There’sjust one thing disturbs my mind
Old Blue’s gone to heaven left me behind
Go on Blue I’m comin’ too,
Go on Blue I’m comin’ too.
8. And when I get to heaven first thing I’ll do
I’ll grab my horn and call old Blue
Hello Blue I got here too,
Hello Blue I got here too. |
