The Old Calahan (Live In Ahoy, Rotterdam / 1987) - 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
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
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
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
( lalala hihooo lalala )
We all know him as the old Calahan
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
Ooohooo
Lalala lalala lalala
Lalala lalala lalala
We all know him as the old Calahan
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
