Roger Miller - Pardon This Coffin Lyrics
Pardon this coffin, please step aside
Pardon this coffin, my brother just died
Now don't you give me no ornary look or I'll knock you down
I'm taking this coffin, putting it six foot down
I'm telling you, six foot down
He was a champion, he was a chief
'til he lost that good job and went on relief
Then came the downfall of spirit and mind
The devil took to him, and he took to wine
So I'm telling you
Pardon this coffin, please step aside
Pardon this coffin, my brother just died
Now don't you give me no ornary look or l'll knock you down
I'm taking this coffin, putting it six foot down
Yeah, not many mourners, but I'm not suprised
Not many mourners, just me and two guys
Where's all them others that claimed they's his friend
Not many mourners, it's a sad way to end
So Pardon this coffin, please step aside
Pardon this coffin, my brother just died
Now don't you give me no ornary look or I'll knock you down
I'm taking this coffin, putting it six foot down
I'm telling you, six foot down

Roger Miller Pardon This Coffin Comments
King of the soul.
He was a balladeer—storyteller.
Good ol Aaron.

One dyin and a burying brought me here
Helluva writer and preformer ....RIP Mr. Miller
One of the most clever song writers ever!
Too many dying for the wine and from the wine..
Well, thought I'd heard em all. That's a new one for me.
i love balls
He was definitely a one-off. From a Jack to a King / Parade of broken hearts got me into C&W music.
Powerful.
Sad way to end... but great sound and video, A+++
It is brilliant. Starting with feel of the song "Daydream" by The Lovin Spoonful&going in his own trademark direction Terrific song!:)
