The White Stripes' Lyrics
Death Letter
I got a letter this morning, what do you reckon it read?
It said the girl you love is dead
I got a letter this morning what do you reckon it read?
Hurry hurry, because the gal you love is dead
Well I packed up my suitcase, took off down the road
When I got there she was, layin' on the cooling board
Packed up my suitcase and I took off down the road
When I got there she was layin' on the cooling board
It looked like ten thousand people standin' around the burying ground
I didn't know I loved her, 'til they began to let her down
Looked like ten thousand, people standin' around the burying ground
I didn't know that I loved her, 'til they began to let her down
You know it's so hard to love someone that don't love you
Don't look like satisfaction, don't care what you do
So hard to love, somebody that don't love you
Don't look like satisfaction, and I don't care what you do
Well I got up this mornin' at the break of day
Just huggin' the pillow, where she used to lay
Got up this mornin' at the break of day
Just huggin' the pillow, where my baby used to lay
