Lyrics
I know when I go
It`ll be a great big show
Friends of mine gathered to set me free
They`ll put on a nice ole spread
Drink coffee chew sweet bread
Talk about the times they had with me
[Chorus]
For I`ve gone on my way
To my quiet grave
That`s where I`ll sleep it off
With the cool clay
Do not disturb me
I`ll be in my grave
Flying on the western wind
Fall down like snowflakes then
Pushing up daisies is for me
I`ll help the big trees grow
Feed the seeds that people sow
I`ve got my work cut out for me
Chorus
Loved ones I leave behind
Sitting around to cry
Thinking they`d be better off with me
But I know that`s not true
Even though I have loved you
It`ll get easier you`ll see
Chorus
