My boy builds coffins with hammers and nails |
| [01:06.30] |
He doesn't build ships, he has no use for sails |
| [01:10.30] |
He doesn't make tables, dressers or chairs |
| [01:14.23] |
He can't carve a whistle cause he just doesn't care |
| [01:18.26] |
My boy builds coffins for the rich and the poor |
| [01:22.09] |
Kings and queens; they've all knocked on his door |
| [01:26.13] |
Beggars and liars, gypsies and thieves |
| [01:30.27] |
They all come to him 'cause he's so eager to please |
| [01:34.43] |
My boy builds coffins he makes them all day |
| [01:37.92] |
But it's not just for work and it isn't for play |
| [01:42.18] |
He's made one for himself |
| [01:44.04] |
One for me too |
| [01:46.00] |
One of these days he'll make one for you |
| [01:53.83] |
For you, for you, for you |
| [02:05.24] |
My boy builds coffins for better or worse |
| [02:10.11] |
Some say its a blessing, some say its a curse |
| [02:13.99] |
He fits them together in sunshine or rain |
| [02:17.93] |
Each one is unique, no two are the same |
| [02:22.35] |
My boy builds coffins and I think it's a shame |
| [02:26.01] |
That when each one's been made, he can't see it again |
| [02:30.01] |
He crafts everyone with love and with care |
| [02:33.94] |
Then it's thrown in the ground, it just isn't fair |
| [02:38.64] |
My boy builds coffins he makes them all day |
| [02:41.99] |
But it's not just for work and it isn't for play |
| [02:46.04] |
He's made one for himself |
| [02:48.17] |
One for me too |
| [02:50.12] |
One of these days he'll make one for you |
| [02:58.12] |
For you, for you, for you |
| [03:15.82] |
