Ten Miles Deep

When I??? m dead, put me ten miles deep
Well hand me up my shot gun Maggie May
Devils come to take your boy away
Well I??? ve been spotted on the run but,
I??? ll be waitin??? when they come
Hand me up my shotgun Maggie May
Well I was born a poor mans only son
Ain??? t my fault I grew up on the run
Did my time as a workin??? man,
Fate kept blood stains on my hands
I was born a poor mans only son
When I??? m dead put me ten miles deep
When I??? m dead put me ten miles deep
Brother when you lay me down, down beneath the cold hard ground you better put
me ten miles deep
Well keep my pistol by my head at night
Lordy I can??? t seem to do no right
My home town they know my name killed the man and won my fame
Keep my pistol by my head at night
When I??? m dead put me ten miles deep
When Jesus comes he won??? t disturb my sleep
I knew when they shot me down,
I felt the flames from underground
When I??? m dead put me ten miles deep
When I??? m dead put me ten miles deep
When I??? m dead put me ten miles deep
Brother when you lay me down,
Down beneath the cold hard ground you better put me ten miles deep.
Brother when you lay me down,
Down beneath the cold hard ground you better put me ten miles deep.
