Bobby Long - Dead And Done lyrics

Heaven is a place where people die pretty Skies don't lie and there's cash in the kitty Running from the rocks, there's water for the lips To ease your mouth and bathe your fist There's no need for trouble when the roads are down Nobody's out of work cause the mine's in town The circus has been here twice already My throwing arm is good and my heart is steady I'm dead and I'm done by the heat of the sun And I'll rest my hat in a Autumn field And I'll hang my hat in a Autumn field In a Autumn field Tell my mama not to worry The food is sweet and the weather's been sunny And I'm well known here round about The local pick pocket is a lay-about Tell my daddio there's no need for washing They do it in your sleep when you're not watching I've already had the neighbors here Johnny Cash came around and we split a beer I'm dead and I'm done by the heat of the sun And I'll rest my hat in a Autumn field And I'll hang my hat in a Autumn field In a Autumn field The girls up here sure look swell They sing like birds I hear it's nothing like hell The local priest says there's no need for cheatin' The local wags call it meetin' and a-greetin' I'm dead and I'm done by the heat of the sun And I'll rest my hat in a Autumn field And I'll hang my hat in a Autumn field
