Blues At My Funeral Lyrics by Travis Bolt
Don’t bring no preacher or rent a long white robe
Don’t dress me up in Sunday clothes
Don’t talk about heaven, don’t speak my sins
Just tell the good Lord to let me in
Tell my mama I found peace, tell my brothers I’m set free
Give my baby what I got left and leave my Bible on the shelf
And baby, play them blues at my funeral
Let the guitar cry like it’s got soul
Don’t sit in silence, don’t tell no lies
Just close your eyes and let the steel strings sigh
So cut me loose and drop me in the hole
And play them blues at my funeral
I closed my eyes at that counting line
Took my handle off the bars just one last time
From dusk till dawn I lived on the road
But when I’m gone, don’t wait up, honey, I’ve gone home
Tell my mama I found peace T
ell my brothers I set free
Give my baby what I got left
And leave my Bible on the shelf
And baby play them blues at my funeral
Let the guitar cry like it’s got soul
Don’t sit in silence, don’t tell no lies
Just close your eyes and let the steel strings sigh
So cut me loose and drop me in the hole
And play them blues at my funeral
