Grateful Dead - China Doll Lyrics

Artist: Grateful Dead

Album: From The Mars Hotel

Genre: Rock

  • Songwriters: Jerome J Garcia, Robert C Hunter

A pistol shot at five o'clock
The bells of heaven ring
Tell me, what you done it for?
No, I won't tell you a thing

Yesterday, I begged you
Before I hit the ground
All I leave behind me
Is only what I found

If you can abide it
Let the hurdy gurdy play
Stranger ones have come by here
Before they flew away

I will not condemn you
Nor yet would I deny
I would ask the same of you
But failing, will not die

Take up your China doll
It's only fractured
Just a little nervous from the fall
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
