Lyrics Dwight Yoakam

Dwight Yoakam

Bury Me

CHORUS:

Hey, bury me along the big sandy

Down in those Blue Grass mountains.

Rest my soul in those hills of coal

Until this old land doesn`t tremble.

Don`t you mourn for me when my soul is free

No, woman, don`t you cry.

Just bury me along the big sandy,

Under the blue Kentucky sky.

This old town of sin, it`s about to do me in

I Don`t know how much I can stand.

With my knees on the street and my heart at their feet

I`m forced to flee from Satan`s hand.

CHORUS:...

When I came to this land I was strong and could stand,

But now I`ve somehow gone astray.

But I still see the truth and the teaching of my youth

And I know the Lord ain`t turned away.

CHORUS:...
