Lyrics
Singing old gospel songs Stoned on blue ribbon beer People don't get me wrong God knows I'm stoned sincere Let the neighbors talk Ask the preacher man to pray When I die just gather my family And sing Amazing Grace But when I die lay my soul on a southbound train Dont'cha cry mama, Jesus kill't the pain You can bury my body in Detroit city in the early mornin' rain Oh but when I die lay my soul on a southbound train I got my old flattop Gibson On the back porch, playin' blues It's too cool to go barefoot But I ain't wearin' no shoes Just mellowin' out and rollin' down The backroads of my mind Past them old churchyards and honky-tonks And bullet-riddled roadsigns Oh but when I die lay my soul on a southbound train Dont'cha cry mammy, Jesus kill't the pain You can bury my body in Detroit city in the mornin' rain When I die just lay my soul on a southbound train When I die lay my soul on that southbound train Dont'cha cry, Jesus killed the pain Bury my body in Detroit city in the mornin' rain When I die lay my soul on a southbound train Oh when I die just lay my soul on a southbound train
