| Don’t mourn your young life away |
| Just lower me down with a prayer and a song |
| Just 'fore the breaking of day |
| Just 'fore the breaking of day |
| Well, it’s a life worth the living but we all gotta die |
| All your crying can’t do me no good |
| Just lower me down with a quick sad goodbye |
| Pour in the black Texas mud |
| Pour in the black Texas mud |
| It’s a hard road you’re travelin', you can’t walk it alone |
| Find a big man to stand beside you |
| Take him down to the river, show him my bones |
| Tell him there lies a friend I once knew |
| There lies a friend I once knew |
| Well, the black crow’s a-screaming, the yellow sun’s warm |
| And the grass tumbles tall down the hill |
| There’s a cold wind building, it’s bringin' a storm |
| When the call of the black crow goes still |
| When the call of the black crow goes still |
