Boxcar Willie - Lefty left us lonely

^GNow Lefty came from Texas at least that what they ^G7say He ^Ccut a record down in Dallas it really got him on his way

You could ^D7hear him on every jukebox In every town and state every DJ played Always ^GLate

Now Lefty wasn't no saint he didn't claim to ^G7be He ^Ccould sing a country song send cold chills through me

Like the ^D7son of a Saginaw fisherman He sang in Saginaw ^GMichigan

If ^Cyou got the money honey I've got the time When he ^Gsang that song well he nearly blew my mind

I'd walk for miles cry or ^D7smile for my ^Gmama and ^Cdaddy And it ^Gtears me up to ^D7see a grown man ^Gcry

Lefty left us lonely he left before his ^G7time But I ^Ccan see 'im singin' now to an angel at that Opry in the sky

I'm just an ^D7old old man a-lookin' for fun Why oh why do you do me this ^Gway

If ^Cyou got the money honey I've got the time When he ^Gsang that song well he nearly blew my mind

I'd walk for miles cry or ^D7smile for my ^Gmama and ^Cdaddy Oh ^Gwhy oh why oh ^D7why do you do me this ^Gway

Yeah Oh why oh why oh ^D7why do you do me this ^Gway ^D7Always ^GLate
