Charlie Rich - Don't Put No Headstone On My Grave Lyrics

Charlie Rich Lyrics

"Don't Put No Headstone On My Grave"

Don't put no headstone on my grave
'Cause all my life I've been a slave
I don't want the world to know
That I'm the man that loved you so

Don't send no flowers when I'm gone
Just put me down, and then move on
Just put me down and let me be
Free from all this misery

Tell my mother not to cry
I'll see her in the by and by
'Til then I'm finally free
From the trouble you caused me

But don't put no headstone on my grave
All my life I've been a slave
Just put me down and let me be
Free from all this misery
