Текст песни: Death Letter + перевод

I got a letter this mornin,

how do you reckon it read?

It said, «Hurry, hurry, yeah,

your love is dead»

I got a letter this mornin,

I say how do you reckon it read?

You know, it said, «Hurry, hurry,

come the gal you love is dead?»

So, I grabbed up my suitcase,

and took off down the road

When I got there she was layin' on a coolin' board

I grabbed up my suitcase,

and I said and I took off down the road

I said, but when I got there

she was already layin on a coolin' board

Well, I walked up right close,

looked down in her face

Said, the good ol' gal got to lay here

'til the Judgment Day

I walked up right close,

I said I looked down in her face

I said the good ol' gal,

she 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 her

'til they laid her down

Looked like 10, 000

were standin' round the buryin' ground

I loved her 'til they damn laid her down

Well, I folded up my arms and I slowly walked away

I said, «Farewell honey,

I’ll see you on Judgment Day»

I folded up my arms

Ah, yeah, oh, yes, I slowly walked away

I’ll see you on the Judgment Day"

I didn’t feel so bad,

'til the good ol' sun went down

You know, I didn’t have nobody to throw my arms around

Ah, hush, thought I heard her call my name

If it wasn’t so loud and so nice and plain

Ah, hush, thought I heard her call my name

If it wasn’t so loud and so nice and plain
