[Intro]
[Verse 1]
A young boy walked into the Somerset pool room
All us ole boys were just standing around
The kid said 'scuse me do you know my daddy?
He's dead and he's lying out there in the ground
[Verse 2]
We told him that we surely knew Harry Walker
Known him for years was a good friend of ours
The boy said well I want to get him a headstone
I already went out and picked him some flowers
[Verse 3]
We looked at each other - not having no money
We ventured to ask well how much would it cost
Two hundred dollars he said with his chest out
And twenty more dollars to have it embossed
[Verse 4]
He said you know daddy was real close to Jesus
He prayed every day long as I can recall
But now I'm afraid when the Lord comes to get him
He might not be able to find him at all
[Verse 5]
Now me and my pals at the Somerset pool room
Ain't famous for nothing but standing around broke
But something about the sad teary eyed youngster
Made us think that something was stuck in our throats
[Verse 6]
So we got some moonshine and stole a few chickens
We passed round the word that a party was on
We found some musicians and wood for a bonfire
And we bush-hogged a place out on Harry's old farm
[Verse 7]
We fixed up a bucket with harry's name on it
We passed it around 'til it nearly was filled
Two hundred and forty-six dollars collected
More than enough there to pay off the bill
[Verse 8]
A couple weeks later we sat in the pool room
And someone suggested since two weeks had passed
Go out to the graveyard and look at the headstone
And see what the young man had done with our cash
[Verse 9]
Now there on the hillside in shiny grey marble
A real pretty headstone that stated the fact
All chiseled in stone there was written this message
Ny name's Harry Walker and here's where I'm at
