Old Howard's dead and gone,
left me here to sing this song.
Well, old Howard's dead and gone,
left me here to sing this song.
Old Howard's dead and he's gone,
Old Howard's dead and he's gone,
Well Old Howard's dead
and he's gone,
Lord, Lord, and he left me
here to sing this song.
Oh, Howard's dead and he's gone
Oh, Howard's dead and he's gone
Oh, Howard's dead and he's gone,
Lord, Lord, and he left me
here to sing this song
Who's been here since I've
been gone?
The great big man of
the Derby Yarn
Who's been here since
I've been gone?
Great big man with a derby on
Great big man with a derby on
Well a great big man with a derby on
Lord Lord
And he left me here to sing this song
Who's been here since I've been gone
A pretty little girl red dress on
Who's been here since
I've been gone
Pretty little girl, the red dress on
Pretty little girl,
the red dress on
Lord, Lord, and she left me
here to sing this song
Oh, how it's dead and gone,
left me here to sing this song
Oh, how it's dead and gone,
left me here to sing this song
Old Howard was his mother's poor boy
Old Howard is mother's poor boy
Well, Howard is mother's poor boy,
Lord, Lord
And left me here to sing this song
Old Howard's dead and gone
Left me here to sing this song
Old Howard's dead and gone
Left me here to sing this song
Old Howard's dead and he's gone,
Old Howard's dead and he's gone,
Well Old Howard's dead
and he's gone,
Lord, Lord, and he left me here to sing
this song.
