Over You

(album: Show Me The Way - 1989)

There'll be some slow walking
Gonna be some sad talking
There'll be some flowers bringing
Gonna be some sad singing
Over you, I say over you
Over you, pretty baby
If I ever hear you say we're through

There'll be some long black limousines
People peeping from their window screens
Parade of cars with their headlights on
All of that will be going on
Over you, I said over you
Over you, pretty baby
If I ever hear you say we're through

There'll be a hole about six feet deep
For you baby to take your sleep
Into a pine box an' down you'll go
Where you will stay where it's free of snow
Over you, I said over you
Over you, pretty baby

If I ever hear you say we're through
All your folks will be dressed in black
Ride a long black cadillac
Yeah, baby they'll be putting you away
The funeral home'll have the business that day
Over you, I said over you
Over you, pretty baby
If I ever hear you say we're through

Say I want to slay you baby, whoa now
Over you, pretty baby
If I ever hear you say we're through

Say you'll never leave me
I say you'll never leave me
Say I'm gonna get rid of you , baby
If I ever hear you say we're through

Whoa, I love you
No telling what I'd do
That's why baby
I want to do all these things to you
