Lay me in the cabbage patch when I die.
Make my hair a nest for rats, earthworm give my back a scratch, lay me in the cabbage patch when I die.
Take the clothing off my back when I die.
It wont take too long to pack, bust up the dresser and pawn the rack, take the clothing off my back when I die.
All I want is peace in my heart when I die. See the world in every part when I die, If it's all over before it starts, I'll cast my eyes into the dark, all I want is peace in my heart when I die.
So lay me in the cabbage patch when I die. Make my hair a nest for rats, earthworm give my back a scratch, lay me in the cabbage patch when I die.
