Dan Bern - Have You Heard the News / Dewey Cox Died lyrics

Long Black Hearse Clear Blue Sky Preacher says his words Grown Men Cry Women start to faint Dark Grey Sky Simple Wooden Box Preacher asks Why? Hey, Have you heard the news? Dewey Cox Died Put him in the ground Start to shovel dirt Grown men turn away Can't bear the hurt Fell Out of a tree Landed on His head Rushed him to a hospital There pronounced dead Hey, Have you heard the news? Dewey Cox Died No, Say it isn't so, Dewey Cox Died! Flowers Everywhere Children Cry Guitar on the ground God himself asks why Long Black Hearse Clear Blue Sky Preacher Says his Words Grown Men Cry Hey Have you heard the news? Dewey Cox Died Why? Hey, Have you heard the news? Dewey Cox Died Today! Dead!
