John Hiatt - Mr. Stanley Lyrics

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
