The Lyrics
George Jones passed away 4/26/2013. He will be missed.
He said I'll stay here till I die
I said OK, that will be fine
As the months went slowly by
He always paid his rent on time
He hung some pictures on the wall
Used Command Strips, left no holes
Neat and tidy all in all
Washed the dishes, picked up clothes
At 9:30 he's abed
Never varies in his mood
Can't believe my luck has lead
To a roommate this darn good
I came home from work today
Couldn't find my roommate here
Ran to his room straight away
Realized my deepest fear
He stopped living here today
He Left a note taped to his door
It said he had to move away
He stopped living here today
(Spoken)
You know I put an advert in the Times
I searched all over best I could
And this one thought preyed on my mind
I'll find no other half as good
He stopped living here today
God, and I miss him more and more
Don't think I'll ever be OK
He stopped living here today
I said OK, that will be fine
As the months went slowly by
He always paid his rent on time
He hung some pictures on the wall
Used Command Strips, left no holes
Neat and tidy all in all
Washed the dishes, picked up clothes
At 9:30 he's abed
Never varies in his mood
Can't believe my luck has lead
To a roommate this darn good
I came home from work today
Couldn't find my roommate here
Ran to his room straight away
Realized my deepest fear
He stopped living here today
He Left a note taped to his door
It said he had to move away
He stopped living here today
(Spoken)
You know I put an advert in the Times
I searched all over best I could
And this one thought preyed on my mind
I'll find no other half as good
He stopped living here today
God, and I miss him more and more
Don't think I'll ever be OK
He stopped living here today

I was looking for an obit for the 'Possum', but this works OK; bad timing perhaps. It's a little lightweight. but keep at it and look for a little more 'edge' and humor. 3rd verse 3rd line should be 'led', fifth verse lower case for 'left', and the (spoken) direction no need for caps. Revise carefully for typos and style to give your work polish. Sorry if this sounds a little patronizing but I think your best work is yet to come so these quibbles are worth mentioning. 444
No, I did notice all you pointed out but just a little late. Thanks for the feed back.
