Hear The Willow Cry

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 neck
Is I'd be much obliged if you'd grant me one request!

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!

My soul's as black as coal
An' I walk the streets at night!
An' In my heart I knew that something wasnt right!
And, I went crazy when I found her with that man!
But I felt better once the blood was on my hands!

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!

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!
Hear the willow cry, hear the willow cry!
