[Verse]
Lay me down easy
As you make my dyin' bed
I'll keep your memory with me
For as long as I rest
As an old tree falls
It's our loss
And they all fall
Lay me down
[Verse]
Lay me down easy
Deep in the clay
As you touch another shoulder
As you say what you'll say
And if in that mind[?]
I've lived my life
Lay me down easy
[Verse]
Lay me down easy
As we meet at the gate
With the devil on my shoulder
And a poor man's fate[?]
Will I win my wings
Will I sing
Or sleep
Lay me down
