Hall Tom T - The Year That Clayton Delaney Died - Sözleri

I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died


They said for the last two weeks that he suffered and cried


It made a big impression on me, although I was a barefoot kid


They said he got religion at the end and I'm glad that he did 





Clayton was the best guitar picker in our town


I thought he was a hero and I used to follow Clayton around


I often wondered why Clayton, who seemed so good to me


Never took his guitar and made it down in Tenn-o-see 





Well, Daddy said he drank a lot, but I could never understand


I knew he used to pick up in Ohio with a five-piece band


Clayton used to tell me, "Son you better put that old guitar away,


There ain't no money in it, it'll lead you to an early grave." 





I guess if I'd admit it, Clayton taught me how to drink booze


I can see him half-stoned a-pickin' out the lovesick blues


When Clayton died I made him a promise, I was gonna carry on somehow


I'd give a hundred dollars if he could only see me now 





I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died


Nobody ever knew it but I went out in the woods and I cried


Well, I know there's a lotta big preachers that know a lot more than I do


But it could be that the good Lord likes a little pickin' too


Yeah, I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died
