Ted End

Someone called the other day

Said old Teddy Greenstreets passed away

They buried him on Saturday,

They said it was a lovely way to go

In his sleep, didn't know a thing

His wife couldn't go

Her second husband took her uptown to a show

His sons and daughters emigrated said,

It cost too much to travel home

Sent a wreath and a sheath.

Isn't it a shame that no one came

The funeral was quiet, but all the same

He's much better off where he is now

Rest in peace, Teddy.

Someone called the other day

They buried him on Saturday,

They said it was a lovely way to go

In his sleep, didn't know a thing

Isn't it a shame that no one came

The funeral was quiet, but all the same

He's much better off where he is now

Rest in peace, Teddy

Rest in peace, Teddy
