Throw Me In The Lake - Banjo Acoustic Version
When I die
Don't put me in the ground
I don't want the soil to hold me down
Bring me back to where I learned to swim
When I was just a little child
And I know it is morbid to say
Just throw me in the lake
Because I want to see the mountains
Throw me in the lake
Where I can swim
Our dog, Benny, his ashes run the shores
And the trees grew with the family
Winding roads I could drive sleeping
Lead us to the place we loved the most
And I know it is morbid to say
Throw me in the lake
Because I want to see the mountains
Throw me in the lake
Where I can swim
Some people want a funeral in a holy church
Some people want to be a tree holding onto earth
Some people need Jameson, forgiveness, and a wake
But I just want you to take me back to Rutherford county and
Throw me in the lake
Because I want to see the mountains
Throw me in the lake
Where I can swim
Don't put me in the ground
I don't want the soil to hold me down
Bring me back to where I learned to swim
When I was just a little child
And I know it is morbid to say
Just throw me in the lake
Because I want to see the mountains
Throw me in the lake
Where I can swim
Our dog, Benny, his ashes run the shores
And the trees grew with the family
Winding roads I could drive sleeping
Lead us to the place we loved the most
And I know it is morbid to say
Throw me in the lake
Because I want to see the mountains
Throw me in the lake
Where I can swim
Some people want a funeral in a holy church
Some people want to be a tree holding onto earth
Some people need Jameson, forgiveness, and a wake
But I just want you to take me back to Rutherford county and
Throw me in the lake
Because I want to see the mountains
Throw me in the lake
Where I can swim
