lyrics

THE COFFIN GOES DOWN & THE SUN HITS THE LINE
ON A LONESOME ROAD WITH A BOTTLE OF WINE
WITH NOWHERE TO GO BUT AWAY
& STAY WHERE NOBODY STAYS
MY BREATH STILL WARM & ALIVE BY YOUR SIDE
TO EXECUTE LOVE, TO BURY A BRIDE
ONE RULE WHEN YOU’RE SHOOTING A MAN
ALWAYS KEEP A GETAWAY PLAN

THEY BURIED MY BABY THE SUN WENT DOWN
THEY BURIED MY BABY RIGHT UNDER THE GROUND
THEY BURIED MY BABY THEY BURIED MY BABY
THEY BURIED MY BABY WITHOUT POMP & FAIR
THEY BURIED MY BABY WITH NOBODY THERE
THEY BURIED MY BABY THEY BURIED MY BABY

I AM THE GRAVEDIGGER I DUG MANY A HOLE
I DON’T LIKE DIGGING THEM I JUST DO AS I’M TOLD
TO BURY THIS GIRL SO YOUNG & PRETTY & FAIR
& NOW ALL SHE’S LEFT WITH IS WORMS & MUD IN HER HAIR
WORMS & MUD IN HER HAIR.

THEY BURIED MY BABY MY LADY MOST DEAR
THEY BURIED MY BABY NOW MY GRIEF IS CLEAR
THEY BURIED MY BABY THEY TOOK PART OF ME
THEY BURIED MY BABY YEAH THEY BURIED MY DREAMS
THEY BURIED MY DREAMS

ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD PAST SUMMERS GO BY
INSIDE MY MIND YOU’LL NEVER DIE
THERE’S NO MORE JOY FOR ME
& THERE’S NO MORE JOY FOR YOU
THERE’S NO MORE JOY FOR YOU

THEY BURIED MY BABY
THEY BURIED MY BABY
THEY BURIED MY BABY, YEAH THEY BURIED MY DREAMS
THEY BURIED MY DREAMS
