White House Blues Lyrics


McKinley hollered, McKinley squalled
Doc said, McKinley I can't find the cause
You're bound to die, you're bound to die"Doc told the horse, he'd throw down his rein
He said to the horse, "You gotta outrun the train
From Buffalo to Washington"The Doc came a-running, he took off his specs
He said, Mr McKinley better cash in your checks
You've bound to die, you're bound to die"Look here, you rascal, you see what you've done
You shot my husband with an Iver-Johnson gun
I'm carrying you back, to WashingtonRoosevelt's in the White House, he's doing his best
McKinley's in the graveyard, he's taking his rest
He's gone, for a long time

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Bill Monroe (September 13, 1911 – September 9, 1996) developed the style of country music known as bluegrass, which takes its name from his band, the "Blue Grass Boys," named for his home state of Kentucky. Monroe's performing career spanned 60 years as a singer, instrumentalist, composer and bandleader. He is often referred to as "the father of bluegrass." In the rock (and roll) community, Bill Monroe may be best known via one of Elvis Presley's earliest recordings at Sun Records, that of Monroe's 'Blue Moon of Kentucky'. Patsy Cline also made a highly regarded version of this song.
