Bury Me Down by the River Songtext
von P.P. Arnold

I wasn′t born in the morning
I must have been born in the night
I've done my road and I′ll carry my load
And all I own is my life

I wasn't born to be lucky, no
'Cause luck had no future with me
Now, I′ve done my wrong and I′ll sing, sing, my song
And stand beneath the hanging tree, yeah

Bury me down by your river
Let all the towns people see
Their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay my head
Just put me down and set me free


I wasn′t born as a rich girl, no, no, no
A rich girl I never, I never could be
But I've done my wrong and I′ll sing, sing my song
And stand beneath the hanging tree
You better, you better come on and sing now

Bury me down by the river
Let all the town people see
Oh, let them stand and look at me (their enemy's dead, let me lay, lay, lay my head)
Just put me down and set me free

Bury me down by the river
Let all the towns, let all the towns people see
The enemy′s dead, let me lay, let met lay, let me lay my head
Just put me down and set me, set me free (set me free)

Hey Barry (what's up)
