Easy

Lay me down easy
As you make my dyin' bed.
I'll keep your memory with me
For as long as I rest.
As an old tree falls,
it's our loss.
They all fall.
Lay me down.

Lay me down easy,
deep in the clay.
As you touch another soul,
as you say what you'll say,
And defend then mine,
I've left my life.
Lay me down easy.

Lay me down easy.
As we meet at the gate,
with the Devil on my shoulder
and a poor man's fate.
Will I win my wings?
Will I sleep? sleep.
Lay me down...
