Bury MeHey, bury me along the big SandyDown in the blue gray mountains Rest my soul in those hills of coal Until this old earth does tremble Don't you mourn for me when my soul is free And old woman, don't you cry Just bury me along the big Sandy Under a blue Kentucky sky This old town of sin, it's about to do me in I don't know how much I can stand With my knees on the street and my heart at their feet I'm forced to beg from Satan's hand So, bury me along the big Sandy Down in the blue gray mountains Hey, rest my soul in those hills of coal Until this old earth does tremble Oh, don't you mourn for me when my soul is free And old woman, don't you cry Just bury me along the big Sandy Under a blue Kentucky sky When I came to this land, I was strong and I could stand, oh But now I've somehow gone astray Yet I still see the truth in the teaching of my youth And I know that the lord ain't turned away So bury me along the big Sandy Down in the blue gray mountains Hey rest my soul in those hills of coal Until this old earth does tremble Don't you mourn for me when my soul is free And old woman, don't you cry Just bury me along the big Sandy Under a blue Kentucky sky Under a blue Kentucky sky Under a blue Kentucky sky |
