My Old Pal Blues

歌詞

I woke up this morning, couldn't hardly get out of my bed I woke up this morning, couldn't hardly get out of my bed When I got the news, that Leroy Carr was dead I run to the window, and I throwed up the blinds I run to the window, and I throwed up the blinds I stood there wondering, and just couldn't keep from crying The day of his funeral, I hated to see Leroy's face The day of his funeral, I hated to see Leroy's face Because I know there's no one, could ever take his place Then off to the funeral, then to the burying ground Then off to the funeral, then to the burying ground My heart was breaking, as they lowered him down He's done singing, he's done playing, you'll never hear his voice no more He's done singing, he's done playing, you'll never hear his voice no more He was a real good pal, and I'll miss him everywhere I go
