Story Behind The Song
I finally wrote a song about the old, new, borrowed and blue tradition at marriage time. Traditions give us strong roots.

Lyrics
Borrowed And Blue
cPAu3-131-929 11-19-07 words and music V.Penny Gottsche
V1
Old mem'ries line the walls of my mind, where I can cry my little heart out
they're coming down, just old B movies now
there's something new I'm all about
V2
Things are looking fine, here on cloud nine, each step is part of the dance
I'm ready to begin my life with you
set sail for the isle of romance
Chorus
Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue
they say I must have these things so I can marry you
something old, something new, something borrowed , something blue-hoo-hoo
V3
Blue skies the blue in your eyes, kodacolor up my days
my blue past is fading fast
my new blue is here to stay
Chorus
Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue
they say I must have these things so I can marry you
something old, something new, something borrowed , something blue-hoo-hoo
break- May I borrow a kiss or two a a hundred percent interest?
kiss me once, I'll kiss you twice
that's the last thing on my list
Chorus
Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue
they say I must have these things so I can marry you
something old, something new, something borrowed , something blue
something old, something new, something borrowed , something blue-hoo-hoo
