The Old Calahan - BZN

Last night when I felt so lonely and so blue

I was playing that old time blues

The blues of old Calahan

Well he was born in Kentucky, far away

He would be soon the famest man

Kentucky ever knew

(Everybody now)

I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

Played me a song of the old Calahan

He once was a star in the days of the union

We all know him as the old Calahan

(Come on now)

Well he was poor with no penny to his name

There was sorrow and there was pain

But no one was to blame

He went to town, just a guitar in his hands

He made fortune and he got fame

At last he made the grade

(Everybody now)

I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

Played me a song of the old Calahan

He once was a star in the days of the union

We all know him as the old Calahan

(Play this song now)

Last night when I felt so lonely and so blue

I was playing that old time blues

The blues of old Calahan

So I can tell you wherever, my best friends

When you’re lonely, when you’re blue

Just play it like I do

(And everybody once more)

I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

Played me a song of the old Calahan

He once was a star in the days of the union

We all know him as the old Calahan

(Woohoo)

(Yeahoo)

We all know him as the old Calahan

(Come on everybody, sing it once more, yeah come on)

I took my guitar and my old country fiddle

Played me a song of the old Calahan

He once was a star in the days of the union

We all know him as the old Calahan
