Bury Me (with Maria McKee)

Bury me along the Big Sandy

Down in those blue gray mountains

Rest my soul in those hills of coal

Until this old earth does tremble

Now don't you mourn for me

When my soul is free

No woman

Don't you cry you just

Bury me along the Big Sandy

Under a blue Kentucky sky

This old town of sin it's about to do me in

I don't know how much I can stand

With my knees on the street and my heart at their feet

I'm forced to beg from Satan's hand

So bury me along the Big Sandy

Down in those blue gray mountains

Rest my soul in those hills of coal

Until this old earth does tremble

Nah don't you mourn for me

When my soul is free

No woman

Don't you cry you just

Bury me along the Big Sandy

Under that blue Kentucky sky

Aw take it on down to Floyd county son

You just bury me along the Big Sandy

Under a blue Kentucky sky

When I came to this land

I was strong and I could stand

Now I've somehow gone astray

But I still see the truth in the teachings of my youth

And I know the Lord ain't turned away

So bury me along the Big Sandy

Down in those blue gray mountains

Rest my soul in those hills of coal

Until this old earth does tremble

Now don't you mourn for me

When my soul is free

No woman

Don't you cry you just

Bury me along the Big Sandy

Under a blue Kentucky sky

Under a blue Kentucky sky
