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

I grabbed up my suitcase, and I took off down the road
I said, but when I got there he was layin on a coolin board
Well, I walked up right close, looked down in his face
Said, the good ole boy got to lay here til the Judgment Day
I looked down in his face
Good ole boy, he got to lay here til the Judgment Day
Looked like there was 10,000 people standin round the buryin ground
I didn't know I loved him til they laid him down
Looked like 10,000 people standin round the buryin ground
You know I didn't know I loved him til they damn laid him down
Got up this mornin', at the break of day
A-huggin' the pillow where my man used to lay
I said (???), the break of day
A-huggin' the pillow that my good man used to lay
Oh hush
Thought I heard him call my name
Once aloud, so nice and plain
