They're gonna lay me low
They're gonna sink me in the snow
They're gonna throw back their heads and crow
When I go
When I go
They're gonna jump and shout
They're gonna wave their arms about
All the stories will come out
When I go
All the stars will glow bright
And my friends will give up the fight
They'll see my work in a different light
Yeah when I go
They'll try telephoning my mother
But they'll end up getting my brother
Who'll spill the story on some long gone lover
That I hardly know
Hats off to the man
On top of the world
Come crawl up here baby
And I'll show you how it works
If you wanna be my friend
And you wanna repent
And you want it all to end
And you wanna know when
Well do it now don't care how
Take your final bow
Make a stand take my hand
And blow it all to hell
They gonna inform the police chief
Who'll breathe a sigh of relief
He'll say I was a malanderer
And a badlander and a thief
Yeah when I go
They'll interview my teachers
Who'll say I was one of God's sorrier creatures
They'll print informative six-page features
When I go
They'll bang a big old gong
The motorcade will be ten miles long
The world'll join together for a farewell song
When they put me down below
They'll sound a fluegelhorn
And the sea will rage and the sky will storm
All man and beast will mourn
When I go
Hats off to the man
On top of the world
Come crawl up here baby
And we can watch this damn thing turn
If you wanna be my friend
And you wanna repent
And you want it all to end
And you wanna know when
Well do it now do it now
Take a long last bow
Take my hand make a stand
And blow it all to hell
Lay me low lay me low
Lay me low lay me low
Lay me low lay me low
Lay me low lay me low
Yeah when I go yeah when I
Lay me low lay me low
Lay me low yeah lay me low
Lay me low lay me low
Yeah when I go
Lay me low lay me low
Lay me low lay me low
Lay me low lay me low
