"(Brother Bill) Last Clean Shirt" lyrics

"(Brother Bill) Last Clean Shirt"

Some people said it was cocaine, some people said it was gin
But I know the name of the motherfucker that did my brother in

They put the last clean shirt on my brother Bill
They put the last clean shirt on my brother Bill

They found him in the backseat of an old abandoned Ford
When I touched the hand on my brother Bill, he was stiff as a running board

They put the last clean shirt on my brother Bill
They put the last clean shirt on my brother Bill

Preacher said he's gone, he's gone to a better world
He's through with his last fight, man, he's done loving his last girl

They put the last clean shirt on my brother Bill
They put the last clean shirt on my brother Bill
