lyrics

Oh babe, don't lie lonesome after I'm gone
Don't mourn your young life away
Just lower me down with a prayer and a song
Just 'fore the breaking of day
Just 'fore the breaking of day

It's a life worth the living, but we all have to die
All your crying won't do me no good
Lower me down with a quick said goodbye
Pour in the black Texas mud
Pour in the black Texas mud

It's a hard road you're travelin', you can't walk it alone
Find a big man to stand beside you
Take him down to the river please show him my bones
Tell him, there lies a friend I once knew
There lies a friend I once knew

The black crow's a-screaming, the yellow sun's warm
The grass tumbles tall down the hill
There's a cold wind is blowing, it's bringin' a storm
When the call of the black crow goes still
When the call of the black crow goes still
