Blue Marlin Blues

歌詞

I got the blue marlin blues... First one off the dock, long before dawn Headed to the blue water, won't take long A box full of ballyhoo, rigged just right Still hurtin' from that party last night 30 miles later, get the call lines in Scramble' round the cockpit thinkin' we're gonna win Seven hours later, we still ain't caught a thing Mood on this boat sure has changed I got the blue marlin blues From my hat to my shoes I used to catch 'em in twos No matter which bait I choose How many more can I lose They got me drinkin' the booze I got the blue marlin blues I had one swimmin' right behind my bait All lit up man, I just couldn't wait I picked up the rod, I put it in free spool Thinkin' I'll shake these blue marlin blues He knocked it out of the clip And I fed him some line I locked it up and I began to wind He came out of the water Spit the bait right at me And disappeared back into the sea I got the blue marlin blues From my hat to my shoes I used to catch 'em in twos No matter which bait I choose How many more can I lose They got me drinkin' the booze I got the blue marlin blues
