|
I haven't been sad now |
|
For so many years |
|
With no foe to fight |
|
Death's all I feared |
|
'Cause death could take you |
|
Death could take you |
|
And that's just what it do |
|
That's just what it do |
|
A bird in my ear |
|
Was beaking away |
|
About all the jewels |
|
He'd come across that day |
|
Jewels in the grass |
|
Jewels in the grass |
|
Where the worms used to be |
|
Where the worms used to be |
|
The cattle were lowing |
|
They cried for your feet |
|
The clouds were your arches |
|
The cows were asleep |
|
And they spoke of you |
|
They spoke of you |
|
As they laid there and mooed |
|
As they lay there and "moo" |
|
The house walls are tighter |
|
The bed it is small |
|
Housing just one soul |
|
Just one soul at all |
|
Where it once held two |
|
It once held two |
|
Now it doesn't hold you |
|
Now it doesn't hold you |
|
The ride and I won't be |
|
Towards working today |
|
That's good, that's over |
|
You are away |
|
And now I'll undo |
|
Now I'll undo |
|
That's just what I'll do |
|
That's just what I'll do |
