Lyrics : Bring Back My Blue Eyed Boy to Me (live)

Thank you very, very much
It's so nice to be here tonight
I'm glad you liked that style of song because I do, too

I suppose many of you recognize my guitar player
She'ss one of the executives of RAM Records
But tonight, I'd like to introduce her to you professionally
Miss Grace Tennessee, give her a hand
Thank you very much
She does all the guitar work on my latest records
"From the Cradle to the Blues" and "Goin' to St. Louie"

This next song I enjoy doing very much
It's an old one that we've sort of revived
I suppose many of you remember it
It's called "Bring Back My Blue-Eyed Boy to Me"

It is so true the rain has no end
And It's hard to find a faithful friend
Oh, but when, when you find one just and true
Trade not the old one for the new

Just last night my dear lover promised me
To take me far across the deep blue sea
Oh, but now my lover's gone, I'm all alone
Poor lonesome girl without a home

Bring back my blue-eyed boy to me
Bring back my blue-eyed boy to me
Bring back my blue-eyed boy to me
So that I may ever happy be

Oh, oh-ho, dig my grave both wide and deep
Place marble at my head and feet
And on my breast a snow white dove
To show to the world I died for love
Bring back my blue-eyed boy to me
Bring back my blue-eyed boy to me
Bring back my blue-eyed boy to me
So that I may ever happy be
Oh, so that I may ever happy be

(Alright! Thank you very much, Margaret
This is the South's favorite ...
And boy, this message is good!)
