Lyrics Our Little Blue Boy - Lee Hazlewood

Our Little Blue Boy

Time was when the little toy dog was new
The soldier was passing there
And that was the time when our little boy blue
Kissed them and put them there
Don’t you go till I come
Don’t you make any noise
Toddling off to his trundle bed
He dreamed of his beautiful toys
The little toy dog is covered with dusts
But sturdy and strong he stands
And the little toy soldier is covered with rusts
And his musket moulds in his hands
The years are many, the years are long
And each toy is in its same old place
Waiting the touch of a little hand
And the smile of a little face
Yes the years are many and the years are long
But the little toy friends are true
Waiting for the smile that will never come
From the lips of our little boy blue
