Don't make me feel bad cause I know
It's too much to take in one go
But there's something that you should all know
Now tell all these young folks to go
I gave him my gun just to try
But it went off right in his eye
And his brains hit and bounced off my shed
So it's safe to a**ume that he's dead
Oh, my life is a festival
She's been so kind to me
And I know these people
And they never would spit in my eye
Don't make me feel sad cause I know?
And loosing a man is quite cold
When I think of the harvest we've had
And, praise God, I should be quite glad
Oh, On Earth, our blood turns to dirt
Most of his covered my shirt
Oh, my life is a festival
And I know it's because
And there are straight and plain
And they never would spit in my eye
Oh, my life is a tapestry
Just plain honest folk
And they never would do,
No not anything bad in their lives
