Blue Marlin Blues Lyrics

《Blue Marlin Blues》--George Strait

●●●●●●

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
