Bury me down in a sea of faces From different lives and far away places Now lay me down on my side Bury me down under a paperbark tree That bends and shakes in a fresh summer breeze Now lay me facing the sky Oooh babe it's not gonna change Oohh baby it's too late I'm on my way Bury me down in the cool brown earth Let the rain trickle down, wash away the dirt Now lay me, let me rest 'Cause I've lived longer then all kinds of people I stood tall like an old church steeple Now baby it's time to die Oooh babe it's not gonna change Oooh baby it's too late I'm on my way I'm on my way I'm on my way
