Mimi Song

Tell them about me

Tell them everything

After I'm gone, after I'm gone

Make it exciting, let them know I was fun

And tell the story like a beautiful dream

Oh the dress I wore was a fine silk crepe creamAnd ooh, remember me

And ooh, remember me wellOh the dances in that old Texas barn

Papa Sam was handsome

To the ladies he shone

I stood outside smoking

I was elegant and young

If not for that fine evening

None of you souls would be aroundAnd ooh, remember me

And ooh, remember me wellOh you're a wild and beautiful thing

The gods are crying when they hear you sing

Whatever happens, I'll be right here

After all your tears, after all your tearsBut tell them about me,

Tell them everything

After I'm gone

After I'm gone
