A jukebox introduced us
When the 60's were still young,
If you got the money,
Honey got my nickels one by one,
I tried to imatate that song,
It's not right but lefty's gone,
Now always late breaks my heart
And every song he sang I played the part,
I heard he was sad and lived alone,
It's not right but lefty's gone.

He played the fair in dallas one year
In the cold october rain,
Most folks stayed home in one
But he sang just the same,
I caught a chill before I got home,
It's not right but lefty's gone,
Now always late breaks my heart
And every song he sang I played the part,
I heard he was sad and lived alone,
It's not right but lefty's gone.

It don't seem like he was around that long,
It's not right but lefty's gone...
