Yonder Comes a Sucker

Recorded by Jim Reeves Words and music by Jim Reeves D A7 Railroad, Steamboat, River and Canal D Yonder comes a sucker and he's got my gal And she's gone, gone, gone And she's gone, gone, gone A7 D And I'll bid her my last fare- well. D I fell in love with a pretty little thing A7 D I thought that wedding bells would ring She was as sweet as she could be A7 D 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.
