Don't You Cry For Me

Oh, got my hands tied around my back And time put a rope around my head And hung from the rafters of my fear Dark in the eyes Tryna face the world, I can't bear to My knees hit the ground and my hands start shaking Old feelings from new faces A rope on the floor and a poor man hanging Please help me chop this tree down Hold me from underneath Words never once cut me down Oh, don't you cry for me And nobody knows I've seen a notion run away I'm torn from the truth that holds my soul I'm down in the grave where I belong Oh, what a ride I dare to fight my devil Wings to the sky on the run from trouble With my own hands, no shovel I dug through the ground, now I'm hanging above saying Please help me chop this tree down Hold me from underneath Words never once cut me down Oh, don't you cry for me Down by the grave that the law man laid When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved Down by the grave that the law man laid When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved When the sun went down (down by the grave that the law man laid) When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved It set the sky on fire (down by the grave that the law man laid) When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved I saw an angel fly (down by the grave that the law man laid) When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved I never felt so high (down by the grave that the law man laid) When the gravel got paved, finally I'm saved (oh!) Please help me chop this tree down Hold me from underneath Words never once cut me down Oh, don't you cry for me Oh, don't you cry for me Oh, don't you cry for me
