1
Mornin', Mrs. Campbell
2
Lovely day today
3
I heard about the fire
4
I wonder what the papers say
5
Let's see now:
6
Give me fifty shotgun shells
7
And a hundred feet of rope
8
Just add that to my bill
9
Says here there ain't no hope
10
They all were burned alive
11
And four packs of cigarettes
12
No, I think I'll make it five
13
I heard about the wedding
14
I'm so happy for the bride
15
Why that fire house looked mighty nice
16
And the whole town swelled with pride
17
We've watched her grow to womanhood
18
She's found an upright man
19
She'll learn this life ain't easy
20
You do the best you can
21
No, no, my family ain't so good
22
My wife just had a spell
23
And I can't afford the medicine
24
She needs to make her well
25
I've been laid off at that factory
26
For sixteen months or more
27
I came home last Wednesday evenin'
28
I found her lyin' on the floor
29
Bye now, Mrs. Campbell
30
Say howdy to your son
31
You can tell him we'll go huntin'
32
When he gets a bigger gun
33
It was too bad about that fire
34
But don't you get me wrong
35
We've gotta teach these people
36
How to stay where they belong
