Hello, I try it again,
some months ago I heard a song "dog blue". I don't remember the artist, but as far as I know it was only with guitar. When i did some research in the web I found a lot of songs with that title but not with this melody. I found at least that it was not Jim Jackson, not David Johansen (as far as I can conclude from samples), not Lacy J. Dalton, not Furry Lewis, maybe not Lonnie Pitchford. I only remember the last lines of the refrain "I called him blue - good dog you", or later "I cried blue - good dog you", the melody if written in C would sound like

.
It was a very strict interpretation, very much emotion in the voice but very few notes, very much understatement, the text not including wife and other episodes, but only the good dog, then "when he died - and he died hard - I cried "blue" , at last that he would follow him.
It seemed to me that it was not a very old take maybe up to ten years old.
Do you have some idea where I could find this song?
Thank you
