For the last time

I watched Old Man Took bait his hook

And then throw his line

Pick up his wine



He's a friend of mine

Known him all my life and his wife

'Neath the swayin' pine

And the clingin' vine

Just before he left



He said now young man

Take good care don't let the bugs bite

Please make sure to say a word at night

For all your brothers feeling blue

Blue, blue, blue

All the time



So I stayed awhile

Took my tea alone, called it home

Like a playing child

Running wild



Heard a bluejay call

Said we got you now

Hope you bow

To the old man's word

I'm sure you heard

Just before he left



He said now young man

Take good care don't let the bugs bite

Please make sure to say a word at night

For all your brothers feeling blue

Blue, blue, blue

All the time



Now young man

Take good care don't let the bugs bite

Please make sure to say a word at night

For all your brothers feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue

Feeling blue ...
