chorus
Won't you bury me beneath the tree,
Where my family lies, where my family lies.
Let the fog lay low, on the mountain high.
Hear the willow cry, hear the willow cry.
Ain't no redemption for the thing that I have done.
Devil owned you once the bullets left the gun.
All I can think of with this rope around my next,
Is I'd be much obliged if you'd grant me one last request.
My soul's as black as coal, and I walk the streets at night,
And in my heart I knew that something wasn't right,
And I went crazy when I found her with that man,
But I felt better once the blood was on my hands.
