| Don’t put no headstone on my grave
|
| 'Cause all my life I’ve been a slave
|
| And I don’t want the world to know
|
| Here lies the man that loved you so
|
| Don’t send no flowers when I’m gone
|
| Just put me down, and then move on
|
| Just put me down and let me be
|
| Free, from all this misery
|
| And tell my Mother not to cry
|
| I’ll see her in the by and by
|
| Tell her that I’m finally free
|
| From all the trouble you caused me
|
| Don’t put no headstone on my grave
|
| 'Cause all my life I’ve been a slave
|
| I don’t want the world to know
|
| Here lies the man that loved you so
|
| Yeah Tell my Mother not to cry
|
| I’ll see her in the by and by
|
| Tell her that I’m finally free
|
| From all the trouble you caused me
|
| Don’t put no headstone on my grave
|
| 'Cause all my life I’ve been a slave
|
| I don’t want the world to know
|
| Here lies the man that loved you so
|
| No, I don’t want the world to know
|
| Here lies the man that loved you so |
