Willie Long Time Smith - My Buddy Dr. Clayton Lyrics

My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he has been here and gone
My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he has been here and gone
But you know he waved his hand, and told me to carry on

We used to drink gin, beer and whiskey, and walk together all night long
We used to drink gin, beer and whiskey, and walk together all night long
But now he has passed away, and told me to carry on

My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he stuck with me to the end
My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he stuck with me until the end
It's hard to find another friend like him, because he was a man among men

It's getting late in the evening, look where the sun done gone
It's getting late over in the evening, just look where the sun done gone
I guess I better be on my way, I promised doctor Clayton I would carry on.
