Don’t Put No Headstone On My Grave Lyrics by Charlie Rich

Pictures And Paintings

1992

Don't put no headstone on my grave
'Cause all my life I've been a slave
And I don't want the world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
Don't send no flowers when I'm gone
Just put me down, and then move on
Just put me down and let me be
Free, from all this misery
And tell my Mother not to cry
I'll see her in the by and by
Tell her that I'm finally free
From all the trouble you caused me
Don't put no headstone on my grave
'Cause all my life I've been a slave
I don't want the world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
Yeah Tell my Mother not to cry
I'll see her in the by and by
Tell her that I'm finally free
From all the trouble you caused me
Don't put no headstone on my grave
'Cause all my life I've been a slave
I don't want the world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
No, I don’t want the world to know
Here lies the man that loved you so
