Lyrics for Song: Yonder Comes a Sucker
Lyrics for Album: The Essential Jim Reeves [RCA Nashville/Legacy] [2006]
(Jim Reeves)
Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell.
I fell in love with a pritty little thing
I thought that wedding bells would ring
She was sweat as sweat could be
'Til I found out what she did to me.
Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell.
I ask her mother to let her go
She whisperd mother please tell him no
Though he may think that I am true
There's plenty more who thinks so too.
Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell.
Now I won't cry my life away
Some other sucker will have to pay
And when he finds that she is gone
I guess I'll hear him sing this song.
Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell...
