Bury Me Down by the River

Just put me down and set me free
Their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay my head
I've done my load and I'll carry my load
And stand beneath the hanging tree

I've done my wrong and I'll sing, sing, sing my song
A rich man I never, I never could be
Bury me down by the river
Let all the towns people see
I wasn't born as a rich man, no
Their enemy's dead, let me lay, let met lay, let me lay my head along
I've done my wrong and I'll sing, sing, sing my song
Their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay, lay my head
Just put me down and set me free
Let all the towns people see, see
I wasn't born to be lucky

Bury me down by the river, Lord no

And all I own is my knife
And stand beneath the hanging tree
Bury me down by the river

Everybody sing now
'Cause luck had no future with me
Let all the towns, let all the towns people see
I want to hear everybody sing
