Mimi Song

Tell them about me
Tell them everything
After I'm gone, after I'm gone
Make it exciting, let them know I was fun
And tell the story like a beautiful dream
Oh the dress I wore was a fine silk crepe cream

And ooh, remember me
And ooh, remember me well

Oh the dances in that old Texas barn
Papa Sam was handsome
To the ladies he shone
I stood outside smoking
I was elegant and young
If not for that fine evening
None of you souls would be around

And ooh, remember me
And ooh, remember me well

Oh you're a wild and beautiful thing
The gods are crying when they hear you sing
Whatever happens, I'll be right here
After all your tears, after all your tears

But tell them about me,
Tell them everything
After I'm gone
After I'm gone
