• Old Dog Blue

I'm going back where I come.
I'm going back where I come.
I'm going back to Giles County.
My wife died and left me a bounty.
Me and them pretty girls ganged around.
That's the reason I'm going to Giles County.

Had an old dog whose 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, put him in a sack.
"Don't move, Blue, 'til I get back."

It rained, it rained, yeah.
It rained, it rained, yeah.

Who been here since I been gone?
Little bitty girl with the red dress on.
Who 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 feets was big and round.
Never 'lowed a possum to touch the ground.

Me and Blue went out on a hunt.
Blue treed a possum on hollow stump.
You know Blue was a good old dog.
Blue treed a possum in a hollow log.
You will 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 laid him down with a golden chain.
And at every link I called his name.

One Blue, you good dog you.
One 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 in the promised land.
I'm goin' to tell you just to let you know,
Old Blue's gone where good dogs go.

When I hear old Blue bark.
When I hear old Blue bark.
Blue treed a possum in Noah's Ark.
Blue treed a possum in Noah's Ark.
