Headstone Lyrics by Lit

These Are The Days

0

[Verse 2]
Here lies a good man
Brother, son, and a best friend
That'd be alright with me
Hell I guess we'll have to wait and see
Maybe just some numbers
With a couple fake flowers
Out there way in the back
Or somethin' funny that'll make 'em laugh

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm workin' on my headstone
Trying to keep my head strong
Might get a little too drunk, too stoned
Trying to do more right, less wrong

[Chorus]
Just working on a good life
And going out on a good time
Live it up till he calls my name
I don't know what it's gonna say
Just workin' on my headstone
Just workin' on my headstone

[Verse 2]
He lived a good life
Woke up and fought a good fight
Yeah trying to do the best I can
But I'm still a work in progress man
Until we meet again

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm workin' on my headstone
Trying to keep my head strong
Might get a little too drunk, too stoned
Trying to do more right, less wrong

[Chorus]
Just working on a good life
And going out on a good time
Live it up till he calls my name
I don't know what it's gonna say
Just workin' on my headstone

[Bridge]
When I die
I pray the Lord will take my soul to heaven
But until then...

[Pre-chorus
I'll be workin]g on my headstone
Trying to keep my head strong
Might get a little too drunk, too stoned
Trying to do more right, less wrong

[Chorus]
Just working on a good life
You can carve with a sharp knife
Live it up till he calls my name
I don't know what it's gonna say
Just workin' on my headstone
Just workin' on my headstone

[Outro]
When I die
I pray the Lord will take my soul to heaven
But until then...
