No Headstone on My Grave - Esther Phillips

作词:Charlie Rich

Umm don't don't don't don't put no headstone on my grave

All my life I've been a slave

And I don't want the world to know

Here lies the fool that loved you so

Don't send no flowers when I'm gone

I just want you to put me down and then move on

Just put me down and let me be

Free from all this misery

Now tell my mother tell my mother not to cry

I'll see her in the bye and bye

Tell her that I'm finally free

From all the trouble you caused me

But please don't please don't put no headstone on my grave

Like I've said all my life I've been a slave

Just lay me down and let me be free

From all this misery

Oh tell my mother not to cry

Tell her I said I'll see her in the by and by

Tell her that I'm finally free

From all the pain you caused me

But don't don't don't put no headstone on my grave

All my life I've been a slave

I want you to put me down and cover me up and let me be

Free from all this misery

Oh lord just let me be right now pretty baby and just let me go
