Del Reeves - Dead And Gone Lyrics

Where are the flowers that bloomed in the spring

Where is the song that the birds used to sing

Oh where is the happiness that they used to bring

Dead and gone dead and gone



Tall handsome stranger in June wet my throat

Everyone hurt me when I made the oath

If I couldn't have her then I'd see them both

Dead and gone dead and gone



Lifeness and still on the ground there they lay

What cruel fate make me found them that day

That big old black hearse came and haul them away

Dead and gone dead and gone



Soon they will take me away from my cell

Then will my spirit leave this earthly shell

Though God knows I'm innocent what new can I tell

Dead and gone dead and gone

Dead and gone dead and gone
