Death Letter

[Verse] I got a letter this morning How do you reckon it read? It said the gal you love is dead I got a letter this morning I'm wondering How you reckon it read He said, hurry, hurry Because the gal you love is dead I grabbed up my suitcase, I took off down the road When I got there she was, laying on the cooling board Packed up my suitcase and I took off down the road When I got there she was laying on the cooling board It looked like ten thousand people standing around the burying ground I didn't know I loved her, 'til they began to let her down Looked like ten thousand, people standing around the burying ground I didn't know I loved her, 'til they began to let her down You know it's so hard to love someone that don't love you Don't look like satisfaction, don't care what you do So hard to love someone that don't love you Don't look like satisfaction, and don't care what you do Well I got up this morning the break of day Just hugging the pillow, she used to lay Got up this morning would you believe the break of day Just hugging the pillow, where my baby used to lay
