I got a letter this mornin', what do ya reckon it read?
It said, "The gal you love is dead"
I got a letter this mornin', what do you reckon it read?
Said, "Hurry, hurry, because the gal you love is dead"

Well, I packed up my suitcase, I took off down the road
When I got there she was layin' on the coolin' board
I packed up my suitcase and I took off down the road
When I got there she was a-layin' on the coolin' board
(Well)

(Hey)

It looked like ten thousand people standin' 'round the buryin' ground
I didn't know I loved her 'til they began to let her down
Looked like ten thousand.. people standin' on the buryin' ground
I didn't know that I loved her 'til they began to let her down

You know, it's so hard to love someone that don't love you
Don't get satisfaction, don't care what you do
So hard to love.. yeah, someone that don't love you
Don't look like satisfaction and I don't care what you do
(Yeah)

(Hey!)
(Wanted her to comfort me)

Well, I got up this mornin', the break of day
Just huggin' the pillows where she used to lay
Got up this mornin', leave the break of day
Just huggin' the pillows where my baby used to lay
