[quote:Anonymous Coward 23554071:MV8yMTI1NTMwXzM1ODY2MzMxX0JEQTA3OUUx] [Curly] Poor Ed is dead Poor Ed Koch is dead All gather round his coffin now and cry He had a heart of gold And he wasn't very old Oh why did such a feller have to die? Poor Ed is dead Poor Ed Koch is dead He's lookin' oh so peaceful and serene ([Ed] and serene) He's all laid out to rest With his hands acrost his chest His fingernails have never been so clean [spoken] Then the preacher'd get up and he'd say "Folks, we are gathered here to mourn and groan over our brother Ed Koch Who hung hisself up by a rope in the smokehouse" And then there'd be weepin' an' wailin' --- from some of those women --- Then he'd say, "Ed was the most misunderstood man in this territory People used to think he was a mean ugly fella and called him a dirty skunk and an ornery pig stealer [Ed gives him a dirty look] But [sung] The folks that really knowed him Knowed that beneath them two dirty shirts he always wore There beat a heart as big as all outdoors ([Ed] as big as all outdoors) Ed Koch loved his fellow man ([Ed] he loved his fellow man) [spoken] He loved the birds of the forest And the beasts of the fields He loved the mice and the vermin in the barn And he treated the rats like equals (which was right) He loved all the little children He loved everything and everybody in the world Only . . . only he never let on And nobody ever knowed it [sung] Poor Ed is dead Poor Ed Koch is dead His friends are weepin' wail for miles around ([Ed] miles around) The daisies in the dell Will give out a different smell Because poor Ed is underneath the ground [Ed] Poor Ed is dead A candle lights his head He's layin' in a coffin made of wood ([Curly] wood) And folks are feelin' sad 'Cuz they used to treat him bad And now they know their friend has gone for good ([Curly] good) [Both] Poor Ed is dead A candle lights his head [Curly] He's lookin' oh so purty and so nice He looks like he's asleep It's a shame that he won't keep But it's summer and we're runnin' out a' ice [/quote]
