lyrics

Follow me down to my sanctuary
Write my name in the obituary
Lord, I feel so unnecessary
Come sit with me at my dinner table
It's your flesh and blood if I'm really able
Then we'll sit back and watch a little cable

Have mercy
God Almighty
On my soul
Or I'll come back for you
Have mercy
Lord, Lordy
On my soul
Or I'll come back for you

Put all the furniture in the front yard
Here comes Pappaw with a deck of cards
Drinking his medicine from a mason jar
Singing and dancing and telling lies
It's all that I can do just to get me by
Come on baby, just a little try

Have mercy
Lordy, Lordy
On my soul
Or I'll come back for you
Have mercy
Lordy, Lordy
On my soul
Or I'll come back for you

guitar solo

Follow me down to my funeral
You don't got to dress so casual
Just got to act kind of natural
Follow me up the cemetery hill
Listen to the sound of a ringing bell
Then we'll be dancing at the gates of hell

Have mercy
God Almighty
On my soul
Or I'll come back for you
Have mercy
God Almighty
On my soul
Or I'll come back for you
