Jim Reeves - Yonder Comes A Sucker lyrics

Railroad steamboat river and cannal yonder comes a sucker and he's got my girl

And she's gone gone gone and she's gone gone gone gone I'll bid her my last farewell

I fell in love with a pretty little thing I thought that wedding bells would ring

She was as sweet as sweet could be till I found out what she did to me

Railroad steamboat river and cannal...

I asked her mother to let her go she whispered mother just tell him no

Though he may think that I am true there's plenty more who think so too

Railroad steamboat river and cannal...

[ guitar ]

Now I won't cry my life away some other sucker will have to pay

And when he finds that she is gone I guess I'll hear him sing this song

Railroad steamboat river and cannal...
