Текст песни In Memory of You Dear Old Pal - Hank Snow

Everything has gone wrong and the nights are
So long since you left us down here all alone
Everyday seems a year and the whole world
Is drear, it seems now I just can't go on
Standing close by my side is our own
Little pride, he misses your lullaby tune
And his big dark blue eyes swell with tears as he cries "
Won't Mummy come back to us soon?"

I planted sweet lilies for you dear of one on your grave 'neath the
Pines in the dawn and our baby each day kneeled
With me as I prayed in mem'ry of you dear old pal

The angels will love you and keep you I
Know, 'cause they needed some one just like you
To brighten the heaven around God's
Great throne, and add a new star to the blue
I'll watch o'er the baby and tend him with
Care and each night by his bedside I'll kneel
And if tears do not stop me I'll sing
Him to sleep in mem'ry of you dear old pal

All your big stakes and treasures I placed them away to me they mean
More than a world and the baby's first curl to
Your picture I've tend in mem'ry of you dear old pal
