Trudy Dies

I haven't known sorrow for so many years
With no foe to fight, death's all I feared
'Cause death can take you, death can take you
And that's just what it do, that's just what it do
A bird in my ear was beaking away
About all the jewels he'd come across that day
Jewels in the grass, jewels in the grass
Where the worms used to be, where the worms used to be
The cattle were lowing, they cried for your feet
The clowns were your arches, the cows were asleep
And they spoke of you, they spoke of you
As they laid there and mooed, as they laid there and mooed
The house walls are tighter, the bed, it is small
Housing just one soul, just one soul at all
Where it once held two, it once held two
Now it doesn't hold you, now doesn't hold you
The ride, and I won't be, towards working today
That's good, that's over, you are away
And now I'll undo, now I'll undo
That's just what I'll do, that's just what I'll do
