I had a dog and his name was Blue I had a dog and his name was Blue I had a dog and his name was Blue Betcha five dollars he's a good 'un too Here Blue, you good dog you Shouldered my gun and i tooted my horn Gonna find a possum in the new ground corn Old Blue barked and I went to see Cornered a possum up in a tree Old Blue died and he died so hard Shook the ground in my backyard Dug his grave with a silver spade Lowered him down with links of chain Every link I did call his name Here Blue, you good dog you Here Blue, I'm a-coming there too
