Coffin Blues
Jerry Leger

Coffin blues all around my head

Coffin blues, she's cherry red

I can't see you looking down at me

Had one problem, now I've got me four

The angel of death breaks down our front door

She wants me to go with her so freely

With the book pressed to my heart

And the kettle on the stove

This earth will have my body but who will get my soul

Is it she with the light on her shoulders?

She tells me where we're going as if it's a dare

What she doesn't know is that I've been everywhere

But my eyes can be blue deceivers

My head is on fire, so is this tomb

The telephone is ringing, my words fill the room

Why did you stop loving the ones who loved you?

I know there can't always be a rainbow

I know I wasn't always so good

But I thought I had time as a friend

In this silly old world

And then she comes through my window

Makes me feel like a child

Says beyond here, they'll give you another try

I'm losing my mind, I gotta tell you dear

Give me a bottle, give me one more year

I hear the drums pound, goodbye my sweet one
