People came from miles around
To  pay respects with painted frowns
Hanging  'round to see the old man down
Underneath the ground

Brother Luke he turned away
And  Uncle John refused to stay
Doctor  Tom said, "Don't cry, he'll get by"
He'll see another day

Alright,  it's alright
I'm gonna get to see you

Alright, it's alright
I'm gonna get to see you

But  the old man's not so blind
Faked the day so he could find
The only tear to rest upon his hand
They didn't understand

Alright, it's alright
I'm gonna get to see you
Alright, it's alright
I'm gonna get to see you
