[The Bridge City Sinners - Departed songtext lyrics]
Don't you dress me in no flat top fancy shoes
Don't let those motherfuckers play those
Goddamn Saint James blues
When I'm departed there won't be doubt
You can burn my body down to the ground
When I'm departed I'm gone oh, when I die
Don't spend my money on no
Fine thread fancy clothes i ain't got much
So what's the use in spending it all?
When I'm departed, yes
When I'm gone there won't be nothin'
Lеft to sing my songs
When I'm departed I'm gonе
They say that heaven's up above
But I don't know
I've drowned my suffered soul in alcohol
They say that hell is down below, but so am I
Waiting for that crimson blood to
Ooze out of my eyes when I die!
They say that heaven's up above
But I don't know
I've drowned my suffered soul in alcohol
They say that hell is down below, but so am I
Waiting for that crimson blood to
Ooze out of my eyes when I die!
Oh, when I die don't waste your
Fleeting time weakening over me
Crying all that love that clearly
Wasn't meant to be
When I'm departed, yes, when I'm
Gone, my heart gone cold, my race been run
When I'm departed, deerly departed
As y'all brokenhearted
When I'm departed I'm gone
