No Headstone On My Grave (Live)
Okay
Don't put no headstone on my grave
All my life, Jerry Lee's been a slave
I want the whole wide world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
Say mama, mama, don't you cry
Jerry Lee's gonna meet you in the by and by
You can tell papa, I'm comin' home
The way things are today, it can't be very long
Better don't put no headstone on my grave
All my life I've been a slave
I want the whole wide world to know
Jerry Lee Lewis, he loved you so
Don't you put no headstone on my grave
All my life I've been a slave
I want the whole wide world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
Mama, mama, mama, mama, mama, mamy, don't you cry
Jerry Lee Lewis gonna meet you in the by and by, in the sweet by and by
You can tell papa I'm coming home
I told you, it can't be very long
Mama, mama, mama, don't you cry
I'll meet you in the by and by, woo
Tell my daddy I'm tryin' to make it home
When this old piano workin' my fingers to the bone
I don't want no headstone on my grave
Jerry Lee Lewis has been a slave
You can tell everybody in Texas, I love them tho
Oh my God, you can't just be very long
I don't want no headstone on my grave
I want a monument, baby
You can tell 'em that Killer said it, darling
Are you ready?
Don't put no headstone on my grave
All my life, Jerry Lee's been a slave
I want the whole wide world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
Say mama, mama, don't you cry
Jerry Lee's gonna meet you in the by and by
You can tell papa, I'm comin' home
The way things are today, it can't be very long
Better don't put no headstone on my grave
All my life I've been a slave
I want the whole wide world to know
Jerry Lee Lewis, he loved you so
Don't you put no headstone on my grave
All my life I've been a slave
I want the whole wide world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
Mama, mama, mama, mama, mama, mamy, don't you cry
Jerry Lee Lewis gonna meet you in the by and by, in the sweet by and by
You can tell papa I'm coming home
I told you, it can't be very long
Mama, mama, mama, don't you cry
I'll meet you in the by and by, woo
Tell my daddy I'm tryin' to make it home
When this old piano workin' my fingers to the bone
I don't want no headstone on my grave
Jerry Lee Lewis has been a slave
You can tell everybody in Texas, I love them tho
Oh my God, you can't just be very long
I don't want no headstone on my grave
I want a monument, baby
You can tell 'em that Killer said it, darling
Are you ready?
