Had a dog and its name was blue
Bet your life he's a rambler too
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

Every night just about good dark
Blue goes out and begins to bark
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

Everything just in a rush
He [?] up quite a bush
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

Possum walked out on the end of a limb
Blue sat down and talking to him
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

Blue got sick and very sick
Sent for the doctor to come quick
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

Doctor comе and he come in a run
Says, "Old Blue, your huntin's donе"
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue
Blue died and he died so hard
Scratched little holes all around in the yard
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

Layed him out in a shady place
Covered him over with a possums pace
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

Dug his grave with a silver spade
Layed him down with a golden string
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue

When I get to heaven, I think what I'll do
I'll take my horn and blow for Blue
Oh, Blue, Blue
Blue, oh, Blue
