[00:03.86] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:04.79] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:07.52] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:09.38] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:11.18] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:12.96] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:14.83] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:16.63] I got the blue marlin blues
[00:19.34] First one off the dock, long before dawn
[00:23.07] Headed to the blue water, won't take long
[00:26.65] A box full of ballyhoo rigged just right
[00:30.39] Still hurting from that party last night
[00:34.08] 30 miles later, get the cold lines in
[00:38.53] Scrambling 'round the cockpit thinking we're gonna win
[00:43.16] 7 hours later, we still ain't caught a thing
[00:45.90] The mood on this boat sure has changed
[00:49.67] I got the blue marlin blues from my hat to my shoes
[00:54.28] I used to catch them in twos, no matter which bait I choose
[00:57.81] How many more can I lose, it got me drinking the booze
[01:02.47] I got the blue marlin blues
[01:22.40] I had one swimming right behind my bait
[01:26.15] I'm all lit up, man, I just couldn't wake
[01:29.74] I picked up the rod, I put it in free spool
[01:33.35] Thinking I'll shake these blue marlin blues
[01:37.97] He knocked it out of the clear and I fed him some line
[01:41.57] I locked it up and I begin to whine
[01:45.44] He came out of the water, spit the bait right at me
[01:49.07] Then disappeared back into the sea
[01:52.77] I got the blue marlin blues from my hat to my shoes
[01:57.28] I used to catch them in twos, no matter which bait I choose
[02:01.03] How many more can I lose, it got me drinking the booze
[02:05.53] I got the blue marlin blues
[03:20.68]
