Burn My Body |
Burn my body in the nothern field |
And let the wind blow the ashes around |
Then you will know that my wounds have been healed |
'cause Lord I’ll be homeward bound |
Let the flames warm your hands |
Let the glow light your way |
These gifts to you I bestow |
No one’s listening don’t bother to pray |
If you do I’ll never know |
Up and up the smoke will roll |
Like a cloud of frightened crows |
Carry my not so immortal soul |
Up between the rows |
Some words that are said can cut like a saw |
And my ears nearly bled at the sound |
I can’t help prepare for the springtime thaw |
'cause Lord I’ll be homeward bound |
When frost turns to flowers and they all start to bloom |
And there’s nothing left to hold |
Tip one back and sing me a tune |
And never let the fire grow cold |
