Текст George Strait – Blue Marlin Blues

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

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
