I suppose you could

Lay me down to die in Illinois

Bury me beneath the rows of corn

Or in-between the maple trees

I climbed on as a boy

Where in the Land of Lincoln I was born

Oh and I recall

We rode the combines in the fall

And there comes a time

For gathering the harvest after all

When you lay me down to die

I'll miss my boys I'll miss my girls

Lay me down and let me

Say goodbye to this world

You can lay me anywhere

But just remember this

When you lay me down to die

You lay me down to live

Well I asked a girl to marry me

On a dock out on the lake

Our babies came to life in Tennessee

And the music of the mountains

Is still keeping me awake

Yeah but everything that rises falls asleep

We are not alone

We are more than flesh and bone

What is seen will pass away

What is not is going home

When you lay me down to die

I'll miss my boys I'll miss my girls

Lay me down and let me

Say goodbye to this world

You can lay me anywhere

But just remember this

When you lay me down to die

I'll open up my eyes on the skies

I've never known

In the place where I belong

And I'll realize His love is

Just another word for Home

I believe in the holy shores of uncreated light

I believe there is power in the blood

And all of the death that ever was

If you set it next to life

I believe it would barely fill a cup

'Cause I believe there's power in the blood

When you lay me down to die

So long boys so long girls

Lay me down and let me

Say goodbye to this world

You can lay me anywhere

But just remember this

When you lay me down to die

You lay me down to live

You lay me down to live

You lay me down

You lay me down

You lay me down to live
