Laid in the Ground Songtext
von The Wandering Hearts

Wear your best and darkest clothes my friend
Shoes may shine and hem may be bent
Have a drink if you like to calm your nerve
Once they′re laid there in the ground

We'll be strong for our loved ones dear
Till they′re worn out and sleeping sound
For the old we'll mourn and the children well
Once they're laid there in the ground

Said I wouldn′t leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn't
Said I wouldn′t leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone

In the ground


There′s a letter in my bedside drawer
Waiting there to be found
Though I go with you, I won't return
Once you′ve laid me in the ground

Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn't
Said I wouldn′t leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone and I didn't
Said I wouldn′t leave you alone and I didn′t
Said I wouldn't leave you alone

In the ground, in the ground
Once you′ve laid me in the ground
In the ground, in the ground
Once you've laid me in the ground

In the ground I′ll lay till we meet one day
When we'll lay there in the ground
