My Babys Gone
You got to weep
You got to wail
You got to drag yourself on hands and knees bleeding
Another mile along the trail
You got to laugh in the face of the devil
When hes hanging on to your shirt tail
You got to hold down the lid of the coffin
And hammer in the last nail
My babys gone so far away
Shes never coming back to me
You got to live
You got to learn
How to find your way to the end of the night
When theres nowhere left to turn
How to keep the last embers of the fire alight
When theres nothing left to burn
How to say goodbye to the ashes that fly
From the cheap metal urn
My babys gone so far away
Shes never coming back to me
She said go to sleep
You got to save
Your anger and rage for the living
cuase theyre no damn good in the grave
And dont waste your time in forgiving
The ones who just dont know how to behave
Theres heaven and hell in the world that you live in
But Im in a different place
My babys gone so far away
Shes never coming back to me
