Hoppys Gone
Roger Miller
[Intro] [Verse 1] Hang it up boys Yesterdays and dreams and matinees Like tinker toys they fell apart today Well almost anyway Hoppy’s gone [Verse 2] Bed em down boys Put your cowboy boots and guns away The broomstick horse just up and died today And so did Saturdays Hoppy’s gone [Chorus] Rock-a-bye yesterday Winds blow and cradles will fall And down comes the curtain And all of a lifetime of memories lives on Hoppy’s gone boys Hoppy’s gone [Verse 3] Hang it up boys Yesterdays and dreams and matinees Like tinker toys they came apart today Best just let it lay Hoppy’s gone [Outro] Rock-a-bye yesterday Winds blow and cradles will fall
