we’ll i’m going to the graveyard
for to rest my weary bones
yes i’m going to the graveyard
for to rest my weary bones
well my life is so damned hard
jesus bring your baby home
won’t you bring me home
when they put that dirt upon me
and I hear my mama cry
when they’re filling up that hole
and that soil hit knotty pine
well the circle done got broken
by and by lord by and by
when that casket starts to rotten
and those bugs feast on my flesh
when my coffin starts decaying
and those little critters gonna eat my ass
I may or not believe man
that i’m down in this here hole dead
when my angels they abandon me
and my devil comes to call
when my sweet angels they abandon me
when that devil comes for my soul
i’m gonna look him in the eye and tell him
man I don’t belong down here at all
when that sun goes supernova
five billion years from now
when that suns glows big and red
five billion years from now
it ain’t gonna matter what adolf hitler done
or john lennon sung
five billion years from now
cause i’m going to the graveyard
for to rest my weary bones
yes i’m going to the graveyard
for to spend some time alone
well my life is so damned hard
jesus bring your baby boy home
won’t you bring me home
