Send My Body

The judge found me guilty of wrong doing And sentaced me to hang in mid-July He said to me "Your lifes a ruin" "If I was you I'd breake right down a cry" Well, Nobody seems to care I ain't guilty I never did the things they said I've done But I guess they have to hang somebody And It's looking like I'm gonna be the one So send my body home on a freight trian Don't worry none if I don't go 1st cla*s Send my body home of a fright train So everyone can see me when I pa*s Don't worry none about no fancy funeral Cause it don't matter how they lay me down Just see they bury me out by Mama's Apple Tree and send my body back to my home town My Mama was a damm ahrd working woman and she tried to raise he kids without a fault The last thing sh said, she was on her dying bed was "Son, on't get in trouble with the law" When the time comes to meet my maker I'm gonna try my very best to take it like a man When they ask if I have one request I'll just say "send my body home on a freight trian Don't worry none if I don't go 1st cla*s Send my body home of a fright train So everyone can see me when I pa*s" "Don't worry none about no fancy funeral Cause it don't matter how they lay me down Just see they bury me out by Mama's Apple Tree and send my body back to my home town"
