lyrics

Bury me in a pine box, don't dwell long on my death, remember all the things I've done and howI always did my best. Don't spend money on a coffin, or a real fancy gravestone, just bury my body in a pine box and leave it alone

I ‘magine by that time I'll have had all I can stand huh, and pinewood come cheap it grows all
over lousiana. Ain't no life in death if there was death in life, follow my example, live and don't waste any time, live and don't waste any time. (chorus)

Give my love to the family, if there's any of ‘em left, if they get to boasting, tell ‘em I outlived ‘em dead. Cause if I die before my time it's cause I had a little too much fun, Lord come with me I still got the race to run, I still got the race to run (Chorus)

Smoke up a bunch of brisket, just like my dad always did, you can serve his memory right but no one does it like he did, you can't do it like he did. To live is Christ, but to die is gain, take my soul up yonder where I won't feel any pain, no more pain
(Chorus)
