Lyrics Jeannie C. Riley

Jeannie C. Riley

Shed Me No Tears

When I am gone sing for me no sad songs plant no flowers at my head

Feed the green grass that coveres me or a dew drop wet

And I hope you'll remember even if I forget

And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

My eyes will be blinded my ears will not hear

So sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

The stone at my head will say that I'm gone that all my seeds have been sown

But I'll leave with you my memory in silence to live on

And I hope you'll remember even if I forget

And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

My eyes will be blinded...

Shed me no tears shed me no tears
