Death Letter
I got a letter this morning
how do you reckon it read?
hurry the gal you love is dead

I got a letter this morning
Im wondering
how you reckon it read
he said, hurry, hurry
on account that gal you love is dead

I grabbed up my suitcase
I took off down the road

Sister, do you know my name?
Well were back in school again
and I dont really know anyone
I really want to be your friend
cause I dont really know anyone

And the bus is pulling
up to your house
I wish you could be sitting here
next to me
i didnt see you at summer school
but I saw you at the corner store
and I dont want to break the rules
cause Ive broken them all before
But every time I see you
I wonder why
I dont break a couple rules
so that youll notice me

Sister do you know my name?
Ive heard it before but I want you to know

I got a funny feeling
that its gonna work out
cause now I see you sitting here
next to me
