The Eulogy
THE EULOGY
When I'm As Dead...
As Dead...
As Dead Can Be
When I Breathe No More
And My Eye's Won't See
When My Heart No Longer
Has A Beat
When My Life Has Lost
To Deaths Defeat
When My Blood Has Drained
And Is No More
When I Am A Shell
Forevermore
When I'm Laid To Rest
In That Wooden Crate
One Day You Too
Will Find This Fate
When I Appear
In Slumbered Sleep
Please Wear A Smile
And Do Not Weep
Then Walk Me Down
That Lonesome Mile
And Bury Me
With Grace And Style
Before You Leave
Please Think Of Me
And Keep Me In
Your Memories
For The Day Will Come
We'll Meet Again
I'll Be The One To Greet
All My Friends
So Carry On
And Live Your Life
But Keep Your Hands
Off Of My Wife
