I Will Never Die - Delta Rae

Hickory, oak, pine, and weed

Bury my heart underneath these trees

And when a southern wind comes to raise my soul

Spread my spirit like a flock of crows

Cause I loved you for too long

I loved you for too long

I loved you for too long

Old heat of a raging fire

Come and light my eyes

Summer’s kiss to electric wire

But I’ll never die

Sycamore, ash, moss, and loam

Wrap your roots all around my bones

And when they come for me, when they call my name

Cast my shadow from a bellow’s flame

(So let the storm come)

Old heat of a raging fire

Come and light my eyes

Summer’s kiss to electric wire

But I’ll never die

I will never die

You can bury my body, but I’ll never die

In the dead of night

(In the dead of night)

I’m gonna loose these chains

(I'm gonna loose these chains)

I’m gonna run and run and run and run and run

(Sing on, sister)

I’m gonna run and run and run and run

I’m coming for you again

(Oh, I’m coming for you again)

So let the storm come

Old heat of a raging fire

Come and light my eyes

Summer’s kiss to electric wire

But I’ll never die

I will never die

You can bury my body, but I’ll never die

Hickory, oak, pine, and weed

Bury my heart underneath these trees
