I had a dream that you laid me low
struck down where nobody goes
I had a dream that you laid me low
Your Alabama heart was beating black as coal
You gave five shots, put one in my head
thats all it takes to make a poor boy dead
You drug me out where the ancients lay
and let the coyote and the sunshine have there own way
You laid me low for singing the blues
You laid me low for loving her too
You laid me low for having my way
and ill be coming back to haunt you, baby
One of these days
You said a payer to save my soul
threw the dirt in my heathens hold
You washed you hands in the river's night
Im just one less sinner come mornings light
You left me there for a million moons
and from my tears red roses bloomed
its not the sadness why i cry
its the beauty of the blood dripping justice tonight
You laid me low for singing the blues
You laid me low for loving her too
You laid me low for having my way
and ill be coming back to haunt you, baby
One of these days
Theres a line drawn down in the sand
"don't you cross it" screams a southern man
Foolish boy often thinks he can
He's got six aces in his deck and four fingers to his hand
You can't cheat the lord nor the way of the land
Reaper comes, reconstructs your karma
touch of his hand
long highway
story roll on
I had a dream that you laid me low
struck down where nobody goes
I had a dream that you laid me low
Your Alabama heart was beating black as coal
