作词 : Prine | |
Lyrics:John Prine Music:John Prine | |
Woke up this morning | |
Put on my slippers | |
Walked in the kitchen and died | |
And oh what a feeling! | |
When my soul | |
Went thru the ceiling | |
And on up into heaven i did ride | |
When i got there they did say | |
John, it happened this way | |
You slipped upon the floor | |
And hit your head | |
And all the angels say | |
Just before you passed away | |
These were the very last words | |
That you said: | |
Chorus: | |
Please don't bury me | |
Down in that cold cold ground | |
No, i'd druther have "em" cut me up | |
And pass me all around | |
Throw my brain in a hurricane | |
And the blind can have my eyes | |
And the deaf can take both of my ears | |
If they don't mind the size | |
Give my stomach to milwaukee | |
If they run out of beer | |
Put my socks in a cedar box | |
Just get "em" out of here | |
Venus de milo can have my arms | |
Look out! i've got your nose | |
Sell my heart to the junkman | |
And give my love to rose | |
Repeat chorus | |
Give my feet to the footloose | |
Careless, fancy free | |
Give my knees to the needy | |
Don't pull that stuff on me | |
Hand me down my walking cane | |
It's a sin to tell a lie | |
Send my mouth way down south | |
And kiss my ass goodbye | |
Repeat chorus |
