Bury Me at the Top of . . . Bury Me at the Top of the Mountain
lyrics for a blues song

(read with slight pause after each line for correct spoken meter)

I've been down
and at the bottom.
All my life
I've felt the pain.
There were days
I saw the sun shine.
But mostly
I've felt the rain.

When I die
do me a favor.
I ask for this
and nothin more.
Just bury me
at the top of the mountain
where I've never
been before.

I've walked
a lot of miles.
Never had
a real friend.
Won't you please
call the doctor
I've got a broken
heart to mend.

Aint got much time
been growin older.
I got nothin
I can show
The Bible tells me
What ya reap is
really based on
what ya sow.

I've been tBury Me at the Top of . . . by `TomWilcox
I Got the Blues Honey, I got so much trouble
Some say it's my middle name.
When my troubles come you run babe
But I love you just the same.

I got the blues.
I got the blues real bad.
But it doesn't get me down girl
'Cause it's all I ever had.

I went down to Memphis
To see a friend I know.
He said "(name)  listen, let me ask ya
Can ya spare a little dough"

I got the blues.
I got the blues real bad.
I get really sad when I think about
All the things I had.

Well, I gave him my last dollar
And fifty cents as well.
Now I'm broke and feelin low down
And my life's a living hell.

I got the blues
I got the blues real bad.
Seems like every night I go to sleep

You're The One to Blame by `TomWilcox
I Won't Be Alone Anymore I've walked that lonely road;
All my life I've closed the door.
Never calling out his name,
Never knowing there was more.
And the truth was all around me;
The evidence was clear.
Looked in all the wrong places,
But the answer was right here.

And now I won't be alone anymore.

I was lost and I was troubled;
I was drowning in despair.
I didn't know the reason,
And I said it wasn't fair.
I'd made my bed and slept in it;
Had no one else to blame,
And the more I tried to change it,
The more things stayed the same.

But now I won't be alone anymore.
No I won't be alone anymore.

Now my life belongs to Jesus,
And my road is filled wI Won't Be Alone Anymore by `TomWilcox

Love... Such thing has kept us alive...

But love has also taken away lives... It is almost taking away mine.

Be careful to whom thou gives thy hearts to.
