fraggle rock - dixie wailin' lyrics

[verse 1: b00ber fraggle]
when my time to go is here
call my friends to gather near
tell the doctor and the preacher that i’m failing, oh

[interlude: red fraggle, b00ber fraggle, junior gorg, & gobo fraggle]
b00ber, where did you learn a funeral dirge?
i composed it in honor of my own departure
hey! pick up the tempo, will ya?
i like a funeral dirge you can dance to!
a funeral dirge—
you can dance to?
i think we’re homeward bound!
all we have to do is pick up the tempo!

[verse 2: red fraggle & gobo fraggle, b00ber fraggle]
but forget about your black
’cause i’m plannin’ to come back
play some honky+tonkin’ griеf and dixie wailin’ (ah!)

[chorus: red fraggle & gobo fraggle, b00ber fraggle]
ah, pick me up and lay me down
and sprеad the news all over town
and tell ’em all to come or they’ll be sorry (slow down!)
pick me up and shake me twice
i’m comin’ back from paradise
this poor boy is here to live in glory
this should be somber and dignified!
[verse 3: red fraggle & gobo fraggle]
when it’s time to say goodbye
all my friends will sit and cry
and they’ll watch the coffin rockin’ round and squirmin’

[verse 4: red fraggle & gobo fraggle, b00ber fraggle]
then they’ll raise a mighty shout
when my bones come marchin’ out (sit! sit!)
and i praise myself and preach the final sermon
wait a minute, you’re losing the sad, maudlin quality!

[chorus: red fraggle, gobo fraggle, & junior gorg; ma gorg; pa gorg]
pick me up and lay me down
and spread the news all over town
and tell ’em all to come or they’ll be sorry
pick me up and shake me twice
i’m comin’ back from paradise
this poor boy is here to live in glory
oh! ah! can it really be that our dear boy has shuffled off this gorggy coil?
i greatly fear

[verse 5: red fraggle, gobo fraggle, & junior gorg]
the earth begins to quake
from the shaking at my wake
i’ll be here and making music like a live’un
[verse 6: red fraggle, gobo fraggle, & junior gorg]
’til the honky+tonkin’ grief
gives the angels sweet relief
’cause they know that dixie wail is still survivin’

[chorus: red fraggle, gobo fraggle, & junior gorg; pa gorg; ma gorg; red fraggle, gobo fraggle, junior gorg, pa gorg, & ma gorg]
pick me up and lay me down
and spread the news all over town
and tell ’em all to come or they’ll be sorry
junior, you’re alive!
it’s a miracle!
pick me up and shake me twice
i’m comin’ back from paradise
this poor boy is here to live in glory
pick me up and lay me down
and spread the news all over town
and tell ’em all to come or they’ll be sorry
pick me up and shake me twice
i’m comin’ back from paradise
this poor boy is here to live in glory
this poor boy is here to live in glory
