The Districts - Funeral Beds Lyrics
These great fields are stretching,Taking me oh so farGreat fields are stretching,Savannah stretching oh so farAnd this dry air is takingMy girl and it's oh so hardAnd i wish i had a melody for a songbird to sing back my loveOh my savannah,Did it have to be so hard?Oh my savannah,Taking all my love and all my heartTailor won't you make meThe finest suit so dark and black and greyAnd old john won't you lend meThe finest gun your eyes have ever laidThe fastest bullet flying,So quick nobody ever feel no pain'Cause the plains they took my babyAnd i'm gonna take her to the funeral beds to layAnd oh my savannah,Did it have to be so hard?Oh my savannah,Taking all my love and all my heartOh no no ...x3And i'm struggling,and I'm stumbling,And i need to startI'm struggling, and i'm stumblingI need you in my heartTailor won't you make meThe finest suit so dark and black and greyAnd old john won't you lend meThe finest gun your eyes have ever laidThe fastest bullet flying,So quick nobody ever feel no pain'Cause the plains they took my babyAnd i'm gonna take her to the funeral beds to layI hate to say i love you,But oh goddamn i love you,You know i doBut you're gone away, gone away, gone awayThese great fields are stretching,Taking me oh so far
