Kate Campbell - Bury Me In Bluegra** lyrics

Huey was a captain with Andy Jackson He settled in Kentucky on a soldier's pay It was two hundred acres and for almost as many years The land has borne my family name You can count the generations Like circles in a tree On tombstones you can barely read Will you walk with me across the blue-green pastures I wanna see horses run one more time You can lay me down beside the ones gone before me Bury me in bluegra** when I die Uncle Henry sells computers, he never learned to farm So he sold his part to daddy when grandpa died And mom and dad are old now, they say they're gonna move Where the weather is always warm and dry The buyers signed the note today They're gonna build a mall With plans to break ground before the fall Will you walk with me through the fields of burley I wanna see leaves of gold one more time You can lay me down beside the ones gone before me Bury me in bluegra** when I die They nailed the sign up yesterday And I don't understand To me it's more than just a piece of land Will you walk with me through the peaceful valley I wanna see the harvest moon one more time You can lay me down beside the ones gone before me Bury me in bluegra** when I die
