CORRECT LYRICS
Lyrics : Peppertree
When they march me down the road, suh
When them ride me down the road, duh
Mahogany with the gold trim, it's silent except for children cryin'
They never even knew him, then trumpets flying
The bearers shinin' shoes sink in the wet ground, horns vying
Sun rise, in the pit lying in waitin' like a clever lion, mouth gapin'
And after they ate, chicken, rice, peas, sticky cake
The children laughing and playing, forgot thеy place
Plates and dishes pilеd in washers
Women whisper, men talk circles
When them ride me down, suh
When them take me down, suh
Barebacked over Wray & Nephew, marijuana cigars, hittin' hearts
A dark road carved, the blackness stretch like tar
Dogs beg for scraps at the edge of the hearth
But it's something else out there in the dark
Something else out there in the dark
Something else out there where you are
Something else out there
When them bring me up the road, suh
When them take me up the road, suh
Peppertree wave over mi tombstone
When them ride me down the road, duh
Mahogany with the gold trim, it's silent except for children cryin'
They never even knew him, then trumpets flying
The bearers shinin' shoes sink in the wet ground, horns vying
Sun rise, in the pit lying in waitin' like a clever lion, mouth gapin'
And after they ate, chicken, rice, peas, sticky cake
The children laughing and playing, forgot thеy place
Plates and dishes pilеd in washers
Women whisper, men talk circles
When them ride me down, suh
When them take me down, suh
Barebacked over Wray & Nephew, marijuana cigars, hittin' hearts
A dark road carved, the blackness stretch like tar
Dogs beg for scraps at the edge of the hearth
But it's something else out there in the dark
Something else out there in the dark
Something else out there where you are
Something else out there
When them bring me up the road, suh
When them take me up the road, suh
Peppertree wave over mi tombstone
