Old Blues - Joan Baez
Written by:Traditional
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 you good dog you"
I shouldered my axe and I tooted my horn
Gonna find 'possum in the new grown corn
Old Blue treed and I went to see
Blue had 'possum up a tall oak tree
"Come old Blue you good dog you"
Old Blue died and he died so hard
Shout around in my backyard
Dug his grave with a silver spade
Lowered him down with a link of chain
Every link I did call his name
"Here Blue you good dog you"
"Here Blue I'm a coming there too"
