When Jimmie Rodgers Said Goodbye Lyrics

There's an old guitar that's lonely

For it's master's gone away

Now he's singing to the angels

Way up in heaven today.

He left a blue song for the brakemen

And to the kids a lullaby

To all sweethearts he left a love song

When Jimmie Rodgers said goodbye.

He left a yodel for the cowboy

They'll sing it now with tear dimmed eyes

And he left every prairie lonelyHank Snow - When Jimmie Rodgers Said Goodbye - http://motolyrics.com/hank-snow/when-jimmie-rodgers-said-goodbye-lyrics.html

When Jimmie Rodgers said goodbye.

--- Instrumental ---

They'll miss him down in Alabama

Across the world you can hear them sigh

Mississippi lost their blue yodeler

When Jimmie Rodgers said goodbye.

Although the freigh trains keep on running

He caught a fast one on the fly

But he left his guitar behind him

When Jimmie Rodgers said goodbye...
