[00:04.50]I got the blue marlin blues...
[00:19.86]
[00:20.50]First one off the dock, long before dawn
[00:24.17]Headed to the blue water, won't take long
[00:28.03]A box full of ballyhoo, rigged just right
[00:31.93]Still hurtin' from that party last night
[00:35.95]30 miles later, get the call lines in
[00:39.78]Scramble' round the cockpit thinkin' we're gonna win
[00:43.55]Seven hours later, we still ain't caught a thing
[00:47.72]Mood on this boat sure has changed
[00:50.41]
[00:51.22]I got the blue marlin blues
[00:53.36]From my hat to my shoes
[00:55.18]I used to catch 'em in twos
[00:57.04]No matter which bait I choose
[00:58.94]How many more can I lose
[01:00.93]They got me drinkin' the booze
[01:02.85]I got the blue marlin blues
[01:06.31]
[01:23.18]I had one swimmin' right behind my bait
[01:26.70]All lit up man, I just couldn't wait
[01:30.80]I picked up the rod, I put it in free spool
[01:34.74]Thinkin' I'll shake these blue marlin blues
[01:38.45]He knocked it out of the clip
[01:40.28]And I fed him some line
[01:42.77]I locked it up and I began to wind
[01:46.66]He came out of the water
[01:48.48]Spit the bait right at me
[01:50.52]And disappeared back into the sea
[01:53.52]
[01:54.21]I got the blue marlin blues
[01:56.25]From my hat to my shoes
[01:58.05]I used to catch 'em in twos
[01:59.90]No matter which bait I choose
[02:01.94]How many more can I lose
[02:03.89]They got me drinkin' the booze
[02:05.75]I got the blue marlin blues
[02:09.86]
