歌詞

Ow people I'm gonna tell you, as near as I can Ow people I'm gonna tell you, as near as I can About the death of Leroy Carr, well he was my closest friend On one Sunday morning, just about nine o'clock On one Sunday morning, just about nine o'clock That train struck him, and he began to reel and rock He said "Lordy have mercy, I'm in so much misery He said "Lordy have mercy, I'm in so much misery Please my friend, do all that you can for me" Soon Monday morning, just about the break of day Soon Monday morning, just about the break of day We began crying, as he was passing away I then called the doctor, on the telephone I then called the doctor, on the telephone When the doctor came, people he was dead and gone
