Tell Old Bill Lyrics by The Chad Mitchell Trio

Reflecting

0

[Verse 1]
Tell old Bill, when he comes home this mornin'
Tell old Bill, when he comes home this evenin'
Tell old Bill, when he comes home
To leave those downtown women alone
This mornin', this evenin', so soon

[Verse 2]
Bill's woman was a-bakin' bread this mornin'
Bill's woman was a-bakin' bread this evenin'
Bill's woman was a-bakin' bread
When they brought her the news that her Bill was dead
This mornin', this evenin', so soon

[Verse 3]
Oh no, can't be so, this mornin' (This mornin')
Oh no, it can't be so, this evenin', so soon
Oh no, it can't be so
I saw my Bill about an hour ago
This mornin', this evenin', so soon

[Verse 4]
They're bringin' Bill home in the hurry-up wagon this mornin'
They're bringin' Bill home in the hurry-up wagon this evenin'
They're bringin' Bill home in the hurry-up wagon
Can't you see how his shoes are draggin'?
This mornin' (Morinin'), this evenin', so soon
This mornin', this evenin', so soon
This mornin' and this evenin', so soon
