I was the Master's best friend
He was the only man I knew
It's been a tall harvest
And he turned us all on to
But my lips are sealed by history
And my tale I cannot tell
My name is Jude Iscariot
And my home address is Hell
My home address is Hell

So baby don't you grieve after me, no no no
Don't you grieve after me
And baby don't you grieve after me, no no no
Don't you grieve after me
And Baby you don't grieve after me

It was two hours gone midnight
When he called me to his side
He said, hey Jude, I need you
Boy, I need you to take a ride
You have to tell those guys downtown
That my time is long overdue
And wait a minute Jude
Don't stick around 'cos no body's gonna dig you
Baby, nobody's gonna love you
And baby don't you grieve after me, no no no
Don't you grieve after me
And baby don't you grieve after me, no no no
Don't you grieve after me

And baby don't you grieve me when I'm here
Don't you grieve me when I'm gone

Now you've got all the silver
And no forgiveness in your heart
And I've got 20 feet of rope
To end just where your guessing game starts
I've got endless books to write you
But my tale I cannot tell
'Cos the only way you'll ever hear me
Is if you're living in the same Hell
If you're living in the same Hell
If you're living in the same Hell

So baby don't you grieve after me, no no no
Don't you grieve after me
Baby don't you grieve after me, no no no
Don't you grieve after me

And baby don't you grieve after me...
