Lyrics for Departed
Oh, when I die Don't you dress me in no flat top fancy shoes Don't let those motherfuckers play those Goddamn Saint James blues When I'm departed there won't be doubt You can burn my body down to the ground When I'm departed I'm gone oh, when I die Don't spend my money on no Fine thread fancy clothes i ain't got much So what's the use in spending it all? When I'm departed, yes When I'm gone there won't be nothin' Lеft to sing my songs When I'm departed I'm gonе They say that heaven's up above But I don't know I've drowned my suffered soul in alcohol They say that hell is down below, but so am I Waiting for that crimson blood to Ooze out of my eyes when I die! They say that heaven's up above But I don't know I've drowned my suffered soul in alcohol They say that hell is down below, but so am I Waiting for that crimson blood to Ooze out of my eyes when I die! Oh, when I die don't waste your Fleeting time weakening over me Crying all that love that clearly Wasn't meant to be When I'm departed, yes, when I'm Gone, my heart gone cold, my race been run When I'm departed, deerly departed As y'all brokenhearted When I'm departed I'm gone
