Old Blue - Cisco Houston

Old Blue - Cisco Houston
I had an old dog
And his name was Blue
I had me a dog
And his name was Blue
Well I had an old dog
And his name was Blue
I'll betcha five dollars
He's a good one too
Singing "Ya-ho Blue
You good dog you"
Well Old Blue's feet was big and round
Old Blue's feet was big and round
Old Blue's feet was big and round
He never 'lowed a possum
To touch the ground
Well he treed a possum in a hollow log
You could tell from
That he was a good old dog
I said "Ya-ho Blue you good dog you"
I'll take my axe and I'll take my horn
And get me a possum
In the new-grown corn
Well Old Blue barked and I went to see
And he had a possum up in a tree
Well the possum crawled out on the limb
Blue barked the possum
Possum growled at him
Singing "Ya-ho Blue
You good dog you"
Well Blue what makes your eyes so red
Blue what makes your eyes so red
Blue what makes your eyes so red
You run that possum
Till you're almost dead
Singing "Ya-ho Blue
You good dog you"
When old Blue died he died so hard
He shook the ground in my back yard
So I dug his grave with a silver spade
Land owered him down
With a golden chain
And every link I did call his name
I said "Ya-ho Blue
You good dog you"
Now everytime I hear Blue bark
Everytime I hear Blue bark
Everytime my hear Blue bark
He's treeing possums in Noah's ark
Singing "Ya-ho Blue
You good dog you"
Well I will tell you so you'll know
I'm gonna tell you so you'll know
I'm gonna tell you so you'll know
That Old Blue's gone
Where the good dogs go
Singing "Ya-ho Blue
You good dog you"
C'mon Blue
