๐ Lyrics
Lay me down in the field
Where grandpa died
And I'll lay here 'til the poppies grow from my side
'Cause men are only grass
We all just fade away
But not before we sow seeds into the clay
Lay me down there
While the sun's high in the sky
Where the grass grows green and high
Lay me down there
Where my fathers have gone before
Sent by famine or by war
Your fingers wrapped around me
And you're cooling me down
And I lay here as we're breathing
In rhythm now
And you hide me in your acres
And fields so green
No gravestones in the soil here
Or choking weeds
Lay me down there
While the sun's high in the sky
Where the grass grows green and high
Lay me down there
We'll share a common block of stone
Just don't let me lay alone
Maybe we'll have babies
And raise a family
And you tell me not to worry
'Cause I will still be me
Well I'll take you to the mountains
I will build a home
And you'll tend to our garden,
Captain Stone
Lay me down there
While the sun's high in the sky
Where the grass grows green and high
Lay me down there
Son, we all must come to die
Me and your mama had our time
Where grandpa died
And I'll lay here 'til the poppies grow from my side
'Cause men are only grass
We all just fade away
But not before we sow seeds into the clay
Lay me down there
While the sun's high in the sky
Where the grass grows green and high
Lay me down there
Where my fathers have gone before
Sent by famine or by war
Your fingers wrapped around me
And you're cooling me down
And I lay here as we're breathing
In rhythm now
And you hide me in your acres
And fields so green
No gravestones in the soil here
Or choking weeds
Lay me down there
While the sun's high in the sky
Where the grass grows green and high
Lay me down there
We'll share a common block of stone
Just don't let me lay alone
Maybe we'll have babies
And raise a family
And you tell me not to worry
'Cause I will still be me
Well I'll take you to the mountains
I will build a home
And you'll tend to our garden,
Captain Stone
Lay me down there
While the sun's high in the sky
Where the grass grows green and high
Lay me down there
Son, we all must come to die
Me and your mama had our time
