Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bodies, please don't cry
Bodies, don't die
Bodies, please don't cry
Bodies
[Verse 2]
I been takin' all the silver
I been savin' all the gold
I'm gonna stuff it down the throat of a week-old corpse
Save that doggone soul
I been savin' up my pain
I'm gon' give it back in spades
I been stranglin' the cries from the murder of love
Save your soul tonight
[Verse 3]
Bodies, please don't cry
Bodies, don't die
Bodies, please don't cry
Bodies, I'm gonna save
[Verse 4]
I been raisin' up the dead
I'm gonna send 'em to the House of Cain
I been prayin' in the light of the waning moon
Slay your doggone soul
I been taken out of Heaven
I been put upon this world
I been walkin' up and down, to and fro
To save your doggone soul
[Verse 5]
Bodies, please don't cry
Bodies, don't die
Oh, bodies, please don't cry
Bodies, I'm gonna save
[Verse 6]
I got bodies on the left
I got bodies on the right
I got bodies up and down, all across town
Save your soul tonight
[Verse 7]
Bodies, please don't cry
Bodies, I'm gonna take 'em up
I'm gonna take 'em up
I'm gonna take 'em up
Oh, yeah
I'm gonna take 'em up
