The White Caps – Bury The Shovel lyrics

however i went

i didn't lose
open the box
to see my shoes
give me a final
kiss on the cheek
in a couple of days
i'd bet i stink

bury me then bury the shovel
bury me, bury the shovel
bury me then bury the shovel
just bury me, bury the shovel
bury me, bury the shovel

put me in
a suit of clothes
make sure my pinky
with the ring on shows
next make sure
my hairs greased down
with tres flores
or royal crown

[chorus]

my friends better celebrate
i know they will
buy a box of cigars, pass em around
this is my last hoorah, send in the clowns
everybody jitterbug, even though i couldn't
don't harass the girls, cuz you know i wouldn't
everyone had better be crying
from laughing hard
don't forget to leave me at rose hills
not the backyard

[chorus]
