Porter Wagoner - Waldo The Weirdo Lyrics




He lived six miles south of Brandsville in a little ole shack

On the banks of the river Big Mole

A strange man he was always seen alone folks called him Waldo the Weirdo

He'd walk to Brandsville every day and just sit and watch the people go by

And the clothes that he wore he made for himself

From his shoes to his coat and his tie

Each evenin' you could see 'im when the sun got low a walkin' toward home

Lookin' west at all the beauty in the sky Waldo the Weirdo

Two days passed and no one'd seen him in town

Then one of the merchants said we'd better go down

To Waldo's place and have a look around

They found him asleep in his shack but his body was cold and still

And in the pocket of the coat that he'd made for himself

A sealed envelope contained Waldo's will

Since he had no family they announced

That the following Saturday at the Brandsville courthouse

Would be the reading of the will

Folks came from several miles to be there

And completely filled the courthouse and even filled the courthouse square

Most were thinkin' that maybe Waldo had left a lotta hidden money

And that it would be devided they wanted to be sure to not miss out on their share

Then the judge addressed the crowd and said ladies and gentlemen

This'll be a surprise to some prob'ly even shocking to a few

But Waldo was the richest man to live around here

And he left a part of his great will to each one of you now the reading of the will

My soul I will to the Master my breath I will to new life

And all the happiness that I've knownI will to the sad ones at heart

That suffer from sickness and strife

My knowledge I will to the minds that can't learn each day

And all of the beauty I've seen I will to those that don't see God when they pray

I have no earthly possessions I gathered no silver or gold

I just gathered the beauty of life that God gave me signed Waldo the Weirdo
