I received a letter, it was addressed in red

I received a letter, it was addressed in red
|
It said "Come on home daddy, your mama is dead"

I went to the depot, caught the train a-flyin'

I went to the depot, caught the train a-flyin'
|
When I walked in her door, saw my little baby's dyin'
|
|
I went to her bedside, looked down in her face
|
I went to her bedside, looked down in her face
|
Said "I love you, love you, baby but I just can't take your place"
|
|
Well you don't mind your water, until your well runs dry
|
Well you don't mind your water, until your well runs dry
|
You don't miss your mama, till the day she's gonna die
