tom russell – old blue lyrics
well, i had an old dog and his name was blue
had an old dog and his name was blue
had an old dog and his name was blue
betcha five dollars he’s a good dog too
here old blue
good dog you
well, i shouldered my axe and i tooted my h-rn
went to find ‘possum in the new-grown corn
old blue treed and i went to see
blue had ‘possum up a tall oak tree
boy i roast’d ‘possum, nice and brown
sweet potatoes, n’ all a-round
and to say, “here old blue, here boy
you can have some too”
now, old blue died and he died so hard
made a big dent in my back yard
dug his grave with a silver spade
lowered him down with a link of chain
every link i did call his name
singing, “here old blue
good dog you”
now, when i get to heaven
first thing i’ll do when i get to heaven
first thing ‘awm do when i get to heaven
first thing i’ll do, pull out my h-rn and call old blue
i’ll say, “here old blue come on dog
good dog you”
i’ll say, “here blue”
i’m a coming there too
down boy good dog”
