Six Foot Under

The flowers are wilted

The preacher's gone

And I'm left here jilted

On the church-house lawn

Through the old graveyard

I'm gonna walk around

And bury my heart

Where it won't be found

Six foot under

Six foot under

Six foot under

Down in the cold, cold ground

Like a fool I trusted

Your honey-like words

Now my heart is broken

It's all for the birds

In a deep deep hole

I'll vanish safe and sound

Where you can't get to it

And kick it around

Six foot under

Six foot under

Six foot under

I'm down in the cold, cold ground

Six foot under

Six foot under

Six foot under

Down in the cold, cold ground
