lyrics

Must Be Dyin'
© 2011 by R. Bowdon

There's a flat and dusty road / that I walk down all alone
There's an old stone cabin / where I lay my weary bones
I'm just stuck here on the ground
Lord I sure ain't flyin'
No this can't be livin' must be dyin'

I ain't got no crop to sell / draw no water from that well
And I ain't getting any prettier / as far as I can tell
That old clock stopped yesterday / Lord it must want windin'
No this can't be livin' must be dyin'

There's a faded wooden door / where you used to live before
And I stand and stare / like I'm bolted to the floor
The people say you moved away / they might be lyin'
No this can't be livin' must be dyin'

There's a flat and dusty road / that I walk down all alone
There's an old stone cabin / where I lay my weary bones
I'm just stuck here on the ground
Lord I sure ain't flyin'
No this can't be livin' must be dyin'

When I see you with him well I just start cryin'
Lord this can't be livin' must be dyin'
