[N]
I had an old dog and his [C] 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 bet you five dollars he's a good one too.
Singing yahoo Blue, [G] you good dog.
[C] Well old Blue's feet was big and round.
Old Blue's feet was big and round.
Old [Cm] Blue's feet was big and round.
He [C] never allowed 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 yahoo Blue, you good [G] dog.
[C]
[Cm] I'll take my axe and I'll take my [C] horn and get me a possum in the new ground corn.
[Cm] Well old Blue barked and I went to see and he had a possum up in [C] a tree.
[Cm] Well the possum crawled [C] out on the limb.
Blue barked the possum, possum growled at him.
Singing yahoo Blue, you good [G] dog.
[C]
Well Blue would make your eyes so red.
Blue would make your eyes so red.
Blue would make your eyes so red you run that possum [G] till you're [C] almost dead.
Singing yahoo Blue, you good [G] dog.
[C]
When old Blue died he died so hard he shook the ground in my backyard.
So I dug his grave with a [Cm] silver spade and lowered him [G] down with a golden [C] chain.
And every link I did call his name.
I said yahoo Blue, you good [G] dog.
[C]
Now every time I hear Blue bark, every time I hear Blue bark,
every time I hear Blue bark he's treeing possums in Noah's Ark.
Singing yahoo Blue, you good [G] dog.
[C]
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 yahoo Blue, you good [G] dog.
Come on Blue.
