Took a bad fall back in second grade
Broke three ribs and my right leg
Spent a few days in that old hospital bed
Mom and dad knew what I'd need
Had a big surprise at home for me
The kind to turn an eight year old's head
As I hobbled in she ran to me
One eye brown, the other green
Wagging her tail like there was no tomorrow
She was my blue healer
She helped me get back on my feet
Somehow she knew I was hurtin'
I was pretty certain by the way she looked at me
She licked my face
Erased every trace of the blues
My blue healer
As I grew up she was growing old
She had my heart, she had my soul
My senior prom seemed to come real soon
When Becky broke my heart that night
My dog and I say side by side
As I cried she was howling at the moon
She was my blue healer
And she helped me get back on my feet
Somehow she knew I was hurtin'
I was pretty certain by the way she looked at me
She licked my face
Erased every trace of the blues
My blue healer
She had six pups the night she left this world
But only one spittin' image of my blue healer girl
One eye brown, the other green
Wagging her little tail like there was no tomorrow
She was my blue healer
She helped me get back on my feet
Somehow she knew I was hurtin'
I was pretty certain by the way she looked at me
She licked my face
Erased every trace of the blues
My blue healer
