Lyrics
She's leavin' and folks are feelin' so low
They're grievin' and they're consolin' poor Joe
Gonna miss her song, oh, Lord, gonna miss her smiles
She'll be travelin' all alone, that last long mile
Through the sighin', with all their troubles and woes
They're cryin' 'cause they all loved-ah this gal from Joe's
She's leavin' and folks are feelin' so low
Oh, they're grievin' and they're tryin' to console poor Joe
We gonna miss her song, yeah, we're gonna miss her smile, yeah
She'll be travelin' all alone, that last long mile by herself
So they're sighin' and they're cryin' with all their troubles and woes
No, they're cryin' 'cause they all loved her, this gal from Joe's
They loved her, they understood her and they loved her
This gal from Joe's, this no, this gal from Joe's
