Old Blue - JJ Cale

I had an old dog, and his name was Blue

Bet your life he was a good dog too

Blue chased a possum up a hollow limb

Possum won, got the best of him

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

Blue he died, and he died so hard

He shook the ground in my backyard

We lowered him down with a golden chain

Every link we’d call his name

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

My old Blue was a good old hound

You could hear him holler for miles around

When I get to heaven, first thing I’ll do

I’ll grab my horn and call Old Blue

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

Bye-bye Blue

You good dog, you

Bye-bye Blue
