nick hans - lay me down lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i wept and i ran, boy, and my boots are wearin’ thin
i work so hard i got blisters on my skin
better run and tell the devil ’cause i
think they’re turnin’ in

[verse 2]
my girl, she left me, my girl, she went ay+way
and when she left me, these words she did say
said, “drinkin’ and a+ramblin’s gonna
gonna drive you to your grave”

[chorus]
so lay me down, lay me down
where that snow hits the ground
ain’t no one better
in this world

[break: acoustic guitar solo]

[verse 3]
i took one last look at her and i went on down those tracks
pulled my hat up over my head and reached into my pack
to fall inside that bottle
and never turn back
[chorus]
and lay me down, lay me down
where that snow hits the ground
ain’t no one better
in this world

[break: fiddle solo]

[verse 4]
that train pulled in, but he did not know a time
they found him in the mornin’, he was dead on that line
his body lyin’ frozen with his
letter by his side

[verse 5]
said, “dig my grave, both wide and deep
and place that marble slab at my head and feet
and bury me with that bottle for the
devil i may meet”

[chorus]
and lay me down, lay me down
where that snow hits the ground
ain’t no one better
in this world
[chorus]
so lay me down, lay me down
where that snow hits the ground
ain’t no one better
in this world

[outro]
so lay me down
