This page contains lyrics to the following song(s):
Willie Smith recorded this tribute to Peter J. "Doctor" Clayton in 1947, shortly after Dr. Clayton's death.
My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he has been here and gone My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he has been here and gone But you know he waved his hand, and told me to carry on We used to drink gin, beer and whiskey, and walk together all night long We used to drink gin, beer and whiskey, and walk together all night long But now he has passed away, and told me to carry on My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he stuck with me to the end My buddy my buddy doctor Clayton, he stuck with me until the end It's hard to find another friend like him, because he was a man among men It's getting late in the evening, look where the sun done gone It's getting late over in the evening, just look where the sun done gone I guess I better be on my way, I promised doctor Clayton I would carry on.
