YONDER COMES A SUCKER
Recorded by Jim Reeves
Words and music by Jim Reeves

[] Railroad, Steamboat, River and [] Canal
Yonder comes a sucker and he's got my [] gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I'll bid her my [] last fare-[] well.

[] I fell in love with a pretty little thing
I thought that [] wedding bells would [] ring
She was as sweet as she could be
Til I found [] out what she did to [] me.

CHORUS

I asked her mother to let her go
She whispered "Mother, please tell him, No!
Tho' he may think that I am true
There are plenty more, who'll think so, too."

CHOURS

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.

CHORUS
