Bury Me

Lyrics for Bury Me

Bury me where the wind don't blow Where the dust won't cover me, where the tall grass grows Or bury me right where I fall Tokyo to Tennessee, I loved them all See the windmills turn up 55 Still got so much to learn, still feel alive And one lonely girl is all I need To tie me to this world, make me believe Well, I ain't no cowboy, but I can ride And I ain't no outlaw, but I've been inside And there were bars of steel, boys, and there were bars to sing And there were bars with swingin' doors for all the time between Bury me in the last few lines Of an obituary for these trying times Find an old live oak to carve my name Hard liquor and dirty jokes, cheap picture frames Well, I ain't no cowboy, but I can ride And I ain't no outlaw, but I've been inside And there were men of stone, boys, and there were men of sand Long nights alone, boys, head in my hands Well, I ain't no cowboy, but I can ride And I ain't no outlaw, but I've been inside And there were bars of steel, boys, and there were bars to sing And there were bars with swingin' doors for all the time between There were bars with swingin' doors for all the time between
