lyrics

I got a letter this morning, how do you reckon it read
It said oh hurry the man you love is dead
I got a letter this morning, how do you reckon it read
It said oh hurry hurry the man you love is dead

Well, I packed up my suitcase, and I took off down the road
When I got there he was layin’ on the coolin’ board
I packed up my suitcase, and I took off down the road
But when I got there he was layin on the coolin’ board

It’s like there was 10, 000 people standin’ round the buryin’ ground
I didn’t know I loved him until they laid him down
It’s like there’s 10, 000 people standin’ round the buryin’ ground
Oh I didn’t know I loved him ’til they lowered him down down down

Well I got up this mornin’, round about the break of day
I was huggin’ the pillow where he used to lay
I got up so, I got up so early in the morn
I was huggin’ the pillow where he used to lay

I Got up this mornin’, just round about the break of day
I was huggin’ the pillow where he used to lay
I got up so, I got up so early in the morn
I was huggin’ the pillow where my sweet man used to lay

I said, hush, thought I heard him call my name
Hush, thought I heard it nice and plain
Hush, thought I heard him, thought I heard him
Hush, thought heard him call my name
