China Doll

Jerry Garcia, Robert Hunter

[Verse 1]
A pistol shot at 5 o'clock
The bells of heaven ring
Tell me what you done it for
No, I won't tell you a thing

[Verse 2]
Yesterday I begged you
Before I hit the ground
All I leave behind me
Is only what I found

[Verse 3]
If you can abide it
Let the hurdy-gurdy play
Stranger ones have come by here
Before they flew away

[Verse 4]
I will not condemn you
Nor yet would I deny
I would ask the same of you
But failing will not die

[Verse 5]
Take up your china doll
It's only fractured
And just a little nervous
From the fall
