Hank Snow - When Jimmie Rodgers Said Goodbye Lyrics


Hank Snow Lyrics

When Jimmie Rodgers Said Goodbye Lyrics
There's an old guitar that's lonely

Since the master's gone away

But he's singing to the angels

Way up in Heaven today



He left a blue song for the brakeman

And to the kiddies a lullaby

To all sweethearts he left a lovesong

When Jimmie Rogers said goodbye



He left a yodel for the cowboy

They sing it now with tear dimmed eye

And he left every prairie lonely

When Jimmie Rogers said goodbye



They miss him down in Alabama

Across the world you can hear them say

Mississippi lost their blue yodeler

When Jimmie Rogers said goodbye



Although the freight trains keep on running

He caught a fast one on the fly

But he left his guitar behind him

When Jimmie Rogers said goodbye
