Scout Niblett - Do You Wanna Be Buried With My People lyrics
rate meSometimes I'm tossed and driven<br />
and sometimes I don't know where to roam<br />
but I've heard of a city called heaven<br />
and I've started to make it my home<br />
<br />
Oh soon I'll reach the glory<br />
where mortals no longer complain<br />
and there's a ship that's coming to take me<br />
and the captain is calling my name<br />
<br />
Do you want to be buried with my people, dear<br />
was the look in his eyes<br />
we can rest our bones side by side<br />
in the dirt of yonder high<br />
it's so fun to see me being me alongside you<br />
that's how I knew the answer dear<br />
to the look I got from you<br />
<br />
I had nearly given up dear with all my fantasies<br />
then you come and crossed my path, and so here we be<br />
and how the hell did I live this long without you by my side<br />
Can I believe it's you I've sensed and sung to all my life<br />
arms that held me never worked before until I was held by you<br />
with a grip so still and charged, oh cou cou cou<br />
<br />
Finally it came around inviting us to play<br />
there's nothing as scary as a divine plan,<br />
but I wouldn't have it any other way<br />
<br />
The mystery is larger than you and me<br />
and we're drunk on faded heart<br />
but woman, I have a suspicion<br />
you just could be my missing part<br />
<br />
but who the hell knows which way<br />
the gods will pull us tomorrow<br />
but honey we're riding up past right now<br />
and fear's only gonna back up in sorrow<br />
<br />
Giddy up love whatever is for you<br />
will never pass you by<br />
you live and die you<br />
and I live and die me<br />
each day for the rest of this life<br />
<br />
'Cause I am a prince<br />
and I am a prince<br />
I am my own salvation<br />
but you are my queen<br />
and you are my king<br />
so live and die beside each other<br />
<br />
<br />
Do you want to be buried with my people, dear<br />
was the look in his eyes<br />
we can rest our bones side by side<br />
in the dirt of yonder high<br />
it's so fun to see me being me alongside you<br />
that's how I knew the answer dear<br />
to the look I got from you<br />
we can rest our bones side by side
<br />
