Traditional, Arranged and Adapted by Roger McGuinn
Well I had an old dog and his name was Blue
Yes, I had an old dog and his name was Blue
Well I had an old dog and his name was Blue
Bet ya five dollars he's a good dog too
Old Blue chased a possum up a holler (hollow) limb
Blue chased a possum up a holler limb
Blue chased a possum up a holler limb
The possum growled, Blue whined at him
Bye bye Blue
You good dog you
Bye bye Blue
You good dog you
When old Blue died he died so hard
He shook the ground in my back yard
We lowered him down with a golden chain
And every link we called his name
Bye bye Blue You good dog you
Bye bye Blue
You good dog you
My old Blue he was a good old hound
You'd hear him hollering miles around
When I get to Heaven first thing I'll do
I'll grab my horn and call for Blue
Bye bye Blue
You good dog you
Bye bye Blue
You good dog you

Review about Old Blue Old Blue, Man's Best Friend | Reviewer: Karylann | 1/30/2008
I've known an Old Blue song since the mid-60s...with no idea where I first heard it. Have since heard numerous verses/versions different from what I learned. It's a great song, and obviously a popular topic. After all, man's best friend is his dog!! Does anyone know just how old this song might be?
