Bury Me Standing 03:00
lyrics
Bury me standing with the wind at my back Like the old old scarecrow by the broken track Like the old scarecrow with his wicker cane A hole in my top hat where I'm touched by the rain Bury me standing, don't lay me down I never wanted to sleep in that frozen ground I only want to sleep by your frozen side By those broken tracks where no train rides Bury me standing but not underground Bury me standing Bury me standing with my mojo bag Tighten my belt when my trousers sag Tighten my belt like a hang man's noose You know I hate it when my pants get loose Bury me standing with a candle stick I'll need something pawn when I get sick We all need something pawn when the honey bees sting So hang on to your grandma's ring Bury me standing when I get sick Bury me standing You can buy and old pine box Dress me up in new tie and socks Toss my fiddle in the hole Just bury me standing Just bury me standing, tie rocks to my feet Don't let me dance when my heart don't beat My heart don't beat, it hasn't for years And my dancing shoes caused so many tears Just bury me standing with my eyes sewn shut Plug my ears with an acorn nut Plug my ears, they've heard too much Bind my hands so they cannot touch Bury me standing without my shoes Bury me standing you got nothin' to lose Bury me standing, my heart don't beat Bury me standing Bury me standing

Show Me Love 01:17
lyrics
Show me love in shady days I'll respect your tepid ways And love you with a wanton heart Like syphilitic Bonaparte Mad as hatters on the street Dance for me with crooked feet And I will touch the way your please As knowingly a Socrates Teach me words of ancient Greek Fan the love of which we speak And when you've got my palette wet Do kill yourself like Juliet And I, your charming Romeo, Asleep in fields of barley gold Will dream fantastic shadow plays of shady love on tepid days Oh, love me with a wanton heart Like syphilitic Bonaparte Oh, when you've got my palette wet Do kill yourself like Juliet Mad as hatters on the street I'll dance for you with crooked feet Oh, love me with your wanton heart You syphilitic Bonaparte
