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
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
