Bad Dream At Night
to write a wrong
won't make you strong
letters can hurt
feeling like dirt
face to face
no disgrace
for the flame is dead
my heart became lead
I had three swings of the bat
can't see nothing wrong with that
you will say I'm this or that
may even say that I'm fat
after you there is no other
for you was never a bother
departing will bring sorrow
won't see sunshine tomorrow
for three marriages I had
last one made me really glad
this departure just a dream
oh my lord I can just scream
