Death Letter
Lyricist：House Eddie J Jr
Got a letter this mornin', how do you reckon it read?
Said, 'Hurry, hurry, the gal you love is dead'
Got a letter this mornin', how do you reckon it read?
It said, 'Hurry, hurry, the gal you love is dead'
Well, grabbed up my suitcase took off down the road
When I got there she was layin' on a coolin' board
Grabbed my suitcase and I took off down the road
Well when I got there she was layin' on a coolin' board
Well, walked up real close and I looked down in her face
The good ol' gal gonna lay here till judgment day
Walked real close, lookin' down in her face
Well she's a good ol' gal, gonna lay here till judgment day

Oh hush, I thought I heard her call my name
It wasn't so loud, so nice and plain
Well, wasn't so loud, whoa so nice and plain
I'm love with four women in my life
My mother and my sister, dead gal and my wife
Only loved four women in my life
Well my mother and my sister, dead gal and my wife
Look like ten thousand standin' around the burial ground
Didn't know I loved her till they laid her down
Ten thousand standin' around the burial ground
Well I didn't know I loved her till they began to lay her down
Laid her down
