Lyrics

It's the smoke or the drink that killed me
And they buried me beneath that old oak tree
Pour some coffee and whiskey on the earth
But there you won't find me
They said "son don't you know, you're dead and gone?"
I said "I don't give a good goddamn."
I ain't got no time to lose and laying down just ain't my style
I've still got some work to do
Heaven or hell it can wait for a while
Cause I've still got some work to do
Sweating under the moon with my own spade
A shovel full for every broken heart
I hear the wolves, they're howling for my bones
But tonight they won't find none
They said "why are you digging your own grave?"
I said "one of these days I'll want a place to lay"
I ain't got no time to lose and laying down just ain't my style
I've still got some work to do
Heaven or hell it can wait for a while
Cause I've still got some work to do
These lungs ain't done breathing
This hammer and done swinging
This voice ain't done singing
I'll let you know when I'll be leaving
I ain't got no time to lose and laying down just ain't my style
I've still got some work to do
Heaven or hell it can wait for a while
Cause I've still got some work to do
