| I remember the year that clayton delaney died | |
| They said for the last two weeks that he suffered and cried | |
| It made a big impression on me, although i was a barefoot kid | |
| They said he got religion at the end and i'm glad that he did | |
| Clayton was the best guitar picker in our town | |
| I thought he was a hero and i used to follow clayton around | |
| I often wondered why clayton, who seemed so good to me | |
| Never took his guitar and made it down in tenn-o-see | |
| Well, daddy said he drank a lot, but i could never understand | |
| I knew he used to pick up in ohio with a five-piece band | |
| Clayton used to tell me, "son you better put that old guitar away, | |
| There ain't no money in it, it'll lead you to an early grave." | |
| I guess if i'd admit it, clayton taught me how to drink booze | |
| I can see him half-stoned a-pickin' out the lovesick blues | |
| When clayton died i made him a promise, i was gonna carry on somehow | |
| I'd give a hundred dollars if he could only see me now | |
| I remember the year that clayton delaney died | |
| Nobody ever knew it but i went out in the woods and i cried | |
| Well, i know there's a lotta big preachers that know a lot more than i do | |
| But it could be that the good lord likes a little pickin' too | |
| Yeah, i remember the year that clayton delaney died |
