Mr. Stanley loved me just like a son
Mr. Stanley loved me just like a son
Now he's gone, I ain't got no one
Daddy died when I wasn't half a man
Oh, my daddy died when I wasn't half a man
Mr. Stanley took me in, raised me the best he can
Mr. Stanley loved me just like a son
Mr. Stanley loved me just like a son
Now he's gone, I ain't got no one
Six white horses coming down to Tennessee
Six white horses coming down to Tennessee
In the middle of the night to take Mr. Stanley away from me
Mr. Stanley loved me just like a son
Now he's gone, I ain't got no one
Daddy died when I wasn't half a man
Oh, my daddy died when I wasn't half a man
Mr. Stanley took me in, raised me the best he can
Mr. Stanley loved me just like a son
Mr. Stanley loved me just like a son
Now he's gone, I ain't got no one
Six white horses coming down to Tennessee
Six white horses coming down to Tennessee
In the middle of the night to take Mr. Stanley away from me
