Undertakers Blues versuri

Undertakers Blues lyrics by Helen Gross, The Kansas City Five

Intro
Don’t you hear the church bells tolling?
Well, a trifling man is dead
Mama caught him out steamrolling
Shot that rascal through the head

Chorus
Six pall bearers take him on his last go ‘round
Six pall bearers take him on his last go ‘round
Gonna place him ‘neath six feet of ground

Cemetary sure is one more lonesone place
Cemetary sure is one more lonesome place
When you’re dead they throw dirt in your face

I can’t cry, ain’t gonna even dress in black
I can’t cry, ain’t gonna even drеss in black
‘Cause for good that he ain’t comin’ back

Bought him flowers, laid thеm at my good man’s head
Bought him flowers, laid them at my good man’s head
He can’t smell them ‘cause he is surely dead
