People said it was cocaine |
|
People claimed it was gin |
|
I know the girl and the [dew-house] man |
|
That done my brother in |
|
Chorus |
|
They put the last clean shirt |
|
On my poor brother Bill |
|
They put the last clean shirt |
|
On my poor brother Bill |
|
They found him in the back seat |
|
Of an old abandoned Ford |
|
[Catch] the hand of my brother Bill |
|
It was a stiff as a running board |
|
[chorus] |
|
The preacher said, he's gone now |
|
Gone to another place |
|
They lowered him down into the ground |
|
I felt a tear trickle down my face |
|
[chorus] |
|
The preacher said, he's gone now |
|
Gone to another place |
|
They lowered him down into the ground |
|
I felt a tear trickle down my face |
|
[chorus] |
