《Poorman’s Grave》歌词

[00:00:00] Poorman's Grave

[00:00:06] Eraserheads

[00:00:12] I.

[00:00:20] I know a man who had nothing

[00:00:24] He was a poor man all his life

[00:00:29] He lived in a shack by the roadside

[00:00:34] With starving kids and a loving wife

[00:00:38] II.

[00:00:48] He went to church every Sunday

[00:00:53] He prays from morning until night, he said

[00:00:57] Good Lord, why have you forsaken me

[00:01:02] When everything I did I thought was right

[00:01:06] Refrain:

[00:01:07] Now my Life is coming to an end

[00:01:12] There's only one thing I'm wishing for

[00:01:17] All my days I have never sinned

[00:01:21] So I hope you won't ignore

[00:01:26] What I'm asking for...

[00:01:28] Chorus I:

[00:01:31] Oh honey when I die

[00:01:33] Dress me up in a coat and tie

[00:01:36] Give my feet a pair of shoes

[00:01:38] That I haven't wore in a long time

[00:01:41] Put me in a golden box

[00:01:43] Not a cross on a pile of rocks

[00:01:46] Bury me where the grass is green

[00:01:47] And the gates are shining...

[00:01:49] Chorus II:

[00:01:50] Oh honey when I die

[00:01:54] Give me a bed of roses

[00:01:56] Where I could lie

[00:01:58] I'm gonna use up all the money that I saved

[00:02:05] 'Coz I don't wanna lie in a poor man's grave...

[00:02:09] III.

[00:02:21] I know a man who had nothing

[00:02:26] He dreamed of satin sheets all his life

[00:02:31] He lived and worked like a dog

[00:02:35] Licking every boot he sees just to survive

[00:02:39] IV.

[00:02:40] He comes home drunk every night

[00:02:45] Wakes up the kids and talks to his wife, he said

[00:02:50] Honey you have been so good to me

[00:02:55] I only wish we had a better life

[00:02:58] Refrain II:

[00:02:59] And now my lifes coming to an end

[00:03:04] There's only one thing I'm wishing for

[00:03:09] All my days I have lived in shame

[00:03:13] So I hope you won't ignore

[00:03:18] Just what I'm asking for...

[00:03:20] Chorus I:

[00:03:23] Oh honey when I die

[00:03:26] Dress me up in a coat and tie

[00:03:28] Give my feet a pair of shoes

[00:03:30] That I haven't wore in a long time

[00:03:33] Put me in a golden box

[00:03:35] Not a cross on a pile of rocks

[00:03:38] Bury me where the grass is green

[00:03:39] And the gates are shining...

[00:03:42] Chorus III:

[00:03:43] Oh honey when I die

[00:03:46] Give me a bed of roses

[00:03:48] Where I could lie

[00:03:51] I'm gonna use up all the money that I saved

[00:03:57] 'Coz I don't wanna lie in a poor man's...

[00:04:01] Oh honey when I die

[00:04:06] Give me a bed of roses

[00:04:07] Where I could lie

[00:04:09] I'm gonna use up all the money that I saved

[00:04:14] 'Coz I don't wanna lie in a poor man's grave...
