Daniel Johnston - My Baby Cares For The Dead lyrics

My baby cares for the dead, I said: Come join the living baby, the bright sunshine And it's so great to be alive and have a good time But my baby hung around the dead Making money acting friendly with the funeral family And she was wed My baby married a rich man mama, what can I do? She cares for the dead now mama, she'll care for you And my baby had a baby, not by me, but by him Her lover who cares for the dead And that birth meant the d**h of our love I know someday my baby will care for me She'll [bleed?] and dress me mama, real fancy And she'll lay me in a coffin Comb my hair, put marbles in my eyes, ey-eye I know someday my baby will care for me (x6) My baby cares for the dead
