Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I should die 'fore I turn forty-three
Bury me beneath the justice tree
Bury me with the lies I told
Bury me with a rusted sword
[Verse 2]
If I should die 'fore I turn forty-six
Lay me next to old Saint Chris
Dress me in my suit of blue
And my favorite picture of you
[Verse 3]
If I should die 'fore I turn forty-nine
Bury me with my last silver dime
You might get a long distance call
Might tell a lie, might tell it all
[Verse 4]
If I should die 'fore I turn fifty-one
Bury me with a loaded gun
So I might lose my misery
Please erase my memory
[Outro]
If I should not make my way up there
If I should find myself somewhere
Where it's always cold inside
