I suppose you could lay me down to die in Illinois Bury me beneath the rows of corn Or in-between the maple trees I climbed on as a boy Where in the Land of Lincoln I was born Oh, and I recall We rode the combines in the fall And there comes a time For gathering the harvest after all So when you lay me down to die I'll miss my boys, I'll miss my girls Lay me down and let me say goodbye to this world You can lay me anywhere But just remember this When you lay me down to die You lay me down to live Well I asked a girl to marry me on a dock out on the lake Our babies came to life in Tennessee And the music of the mountains is still keeping me awake Yeah, but everything that rises falls asleep We are not alone We are more than flesh and bone What is seen will pass away What is not is going home Letras de canciones When you lay me down to die I'll miss my boys, I'll miss my girls Lay me down and let me say goodbye to this world You can lay me anywhere But just remember this When you lay me down to die I'll open up my eyes on the skies I've never known In the place where I belong And I'll realize His love is just another word for Home I believe in the holy shores of uncreated light I believe there is power in the blood And all of the death that ever was, If you set it next to life I believe it would barely fill a cup 'Cause I believe there's power in the blood When you lay me down to die So long, boys, so long, girls Lay me down and let me say goodbye to this world You can lay me anywhere But just remember this When you lay me down to die You lay me down to live From Letras Mania
