the pine box boys - the funeral lyrics
[chorus]
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
for those who’ve gone on before and buried ‘neath the ground
let em know how much you love ’em: pick ’em up and put ’em down
[verse 1]
them newer caddy he-rs-s since 1965
got nothing on that ’52 that sticker used to drive
get a ’64 or the ones before and fix ’em up again
the 50 had those fenders, but the 60 had them fins
them newer caddy’s whisper as they carry off their load
so many shiny he-rs-s rolling down the same road
it was better when we walked behind the coffin in the streets
to let the dear departed hear the stomping of our feet
[chorus]
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
for those who’ve gone on before and buried ‘neath the ground
let em know how much you love ’em: pick ’em up and put ’em down
[verse 2]
forget your pretty lilies no dead nose can smell
get a pair of tony lamas, lord, and stomp around like h-ll
stomp for someone else today, someone will stomp for you
and if the earth don’t burn to ashes you’ll be buried in it too
every stone a-propped up is a friend of yours or mine
stomp around a while, let ’em know you’re doing fine
raise your gl-ss, shake your -ss, slam that mother down
bang your head and raise the dead and buy another round
[chorus]
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
for those who’ve gone on before and buried ‘neath the ground
let em know how much you love ’em: pick ’em up and put ’em down
(go on, there!)
[narration]
well, the pine box boys wanna thank you folks for listening. we’d also like to thank our sponsors, hollins & hollins mortuary services. as they say: “we’ll be the last ones to let you down!”
we’re also giving one out there to all of our friends that we buried this year, friends and dogs alike
[bridge]
can’t you hear me down there?
can’t you hear me down there?
can’t you hear me down there?
uncle dodds, help us out here!
hey zombies! hey zombies! hey zombies!
get your dead -ss in here!
hey zombies! hey zombies! hey zombies!
get your dead -ss in here!
[chorus]
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
all ya’ll stamp your feet: pick ’em up and put ’em down
for those who’ve gone on before and buried ‘neath the ground
let em know how much you love ’em: pick ’em up and put ’em down
let em know how much you love ’em: pick ’em up and put ’em down
let em know how much you love ’em: pick ’em up and put ’em down
(caw!)
