Death Letter

I got a letter this morning

how do you reckon it read?

hurry the gal you love is dead

I got a letter this morning

I'm wondering

how you reckon it read

he said, hurry, hurry

on account that gal you love is dead

I grabbed up my suitcase, I took off down the road

When I got there she was, laying on the cooling board

Packed up my suitcase and I took off down the road

When I got there she was laying on the cooling board

It looked like ten thousand people standing around the burying ground

I didn't know I loved her, 'til they began to let her down

looked like ten thousand, people standing around the burying ground

I didn't know I loved her, 'til they began to let her down

You know it's so hard to love someone that don't love you

Don't look like satisfaction, don't care what you do

so hard to love someone that don't love you

Don't look like satisfaction, and don't care what you do

Well I got up this morning the break of day

Just hugging the pillow, she used to lay

Got up this morning would you believe the break of day

Just hugging the pillow, where my baby used to lay
