Cypress Grove Lyrics

Cypress Grove lyrics

I'd rather be buried way down in some cypress grove

I'd rather be buried
way down in some cypress grove

To have me a woman that I can't
control



your knee-bone gone aching and your body sure getting
cold

your knee-bone gone aching and your body sure getting cold

You're just getting ready for some cypress grove



Well the old
people they try to tell me, but I never did know

the old people they try
to tell me, but Lord I never did know

"The good book is sure gonna tell
you, you got to reap what you sow"



"Enough" I told you, "I know
I'd been lying"

"Enough" I told you, told you "I know I'd been lying"

Come through me, now I'm dying



I'd rather be lying six feet down
in the ground

I'd rather be lying six feet down in the ground

Than
be way up here, and let you throw me down



Take back what you give,
take back, that's all so hard to live

Take back what you give, take back
what you give, that's so hard to live

We're going



I'd rather
be lying in some more cypress grove
