home stretch
when i die send me far out to sea
while i live just let me be
when i am gone, please, just forget about me
it’s a lonesome road i have travelled alone
some day i will call some place my own
‘til then i’ll just make the ground my home
the sun drips on down into the water
i will always be my fathers daughter
but today i’m just a lamb being led to the slaughter
here i stand now, stronger than i once knew
the only thing i’m missing, is my blues
there’s no need to miss one that can’t be true
oh they told me, trust and the truth unfolds
i say hell no, i ain’t got faith anymore
give away what is left of my soul, what for
when i die, send me far out to sea
while i live, just let me be
when i am gone, please, forget about me
