WE BURIED JAMES
THE FOURTH OF MAY
SIX MONTHS
AND EVERY DAY I THINK
ABOUT HIM
HE WAS SWEET
AND HE WAS KIND
BUT MOST OF ALL
HE WAS MINE
AND I DON'T KNOW
HOW I'VE LIVED
WITHOUT HIM
I'VE TAKEN IN
THAT OLD STRAY CAT
THAT JIMMY
ALWAYS LIKED
A LITTLE CALICO
THAT ALWAYS
SEEMED TO KNOW
HOW TO GET ME
THROUGH THE NIGHT
I THINK I'M GONNA
NAME HER RUBY
I THINK WE'RE GONNA
BE GOOD FRIENDS
I THINK I'M GONNA BUY
A BUCKET OF PAINT
LIGHTEN UP THIS PLACE
AND MAKE IT
HOME AGAIN
I THINK I'M
GONNA MAKE
SOME PHONE CALLS
SOME PETIT FOURS
AND BIG PINK BOWS
AND HAVE
A LITTLE PARTY
ON THE PATIO
JIMMY'S MOM CALLS
EVERY DAY
MOSTLY THOUGH
IT'S JUST TO SAY
YOU'RE GONNA MAKE IT
OH
WE SHARE MORE
THAN JUST LAST NAMES
TEARS OF JOY
AND TEARS OF PAIN
THE GOOD LORD GIVETH
AND HE TAKETH
I CAN FEEL
THE BABY KICKIN' NOW
EVERY DAY
I GUESS
WE'LL HAVE THAT
SHOWER SUNDAY
OH AND BY THE WAY
I THINK I'M GONNA
NAME HER JAMIE
I THINK WE'RE GONNA
BE GOOD FRIENDS
I THINK I'M GONNA BUY
A BUCKET OF PAINT
LIGHTEN UP THIS PLACE
AND MAKE IT
HOME AGAIN
I THINK I'M
GONNA MAKE
SOME PHONE CALLS
SOME PETIT FOURS
AND BIG PINK BOWS
AND HAVE
A LITTLE PARTY
ON THE PATIO OH
OH HAVE
A LITTLE PARTY
ON THE PATIO
YEAH
ON THE PATIO
OOH OOH
OH OH OH OH OH

THINK I'M GONNA
NAME HER JAMIE
THINK WE'RE GONNA
BE GOOD FRIENDS
