When Daddy told me what happened, I couldn't believe what he just said
|
|
G F C G G
|
|
Sonny shot himself with a .44, and they found him lyin' on his bed
|
|
G F C G
|
|
I could not speak a single word, no tears streamed down my face
|
|
G F C G G
|
|
I just sat there on the living room couch, staring off into space
|
|
|
|
Mama and Daddy went over to the house to see what had to be done
|
|
They took the sheets off of the bed, and they went to call someone
|
|
Some of us gathered at a friend's house to help each other ease the pain
|
|
I just sat alone in a corner chair, I couldn't say much of anything
|
|
|
|
We drove on out to the country, his friends all stood around
|
|
Subiaco Cemetery is where we lay him down
|
|
I saw his mama, she was standing there, and his sister, she was there too
|
|
I saw them look at us standing around the grave, and not a soul they knew
|
|
|
|
Born and raised in Pineola, his mama believed in the Pentecost
|
|
She got the preacher to say some words so his soul wouldn't get lost
|
|
|
|
[instrumental, same chords]
|
|
|
|
Some of us, we stood in silence, some bowed our heads and prayed
|
|
I think I must've picked up a handful of dust and let it fall over his grave
