Send My Body Lyrics - Randy Travis

Well that judge he found me guilty of wrong doing 

And he sentenced me to hang in mid July 

He look down at me and said you're lifes a ruin 

If I were you I'd break right down and cry 

But nobody seems to care that I ain't guilty 

'Cause I never did the things they said I've done 

But I guess they're gonna have to hang somebody 

And It's lookin' like I'm goin to be the one

Chorus: 

So send my body home on a freight train 

And don't worry none that I don't go first class 

Send my body home on a freight train 

So everyone can see me when I pass 

And don't worry none about no fancy funeral 

It don't matter how they lay me down 

Just see they bury me out by mama's apple tree 

And send my body back to my home town 

--- Instrumental --- 

My mama was one damn hard workin' woman 

She tried to raise us kids without a pa 

The last thing that she said she was on her dying bed 

Was son don't get in trouble with the law 

Whenever my time comes to meet my maker 

I'm going to try to do my very best 

I'm going try to stand and take it like a man 

When they ask if I have one request

Chorus: 

I'll just say ... 

Send my body home on a freight train 

And don't worry none that I don't go first class 

Send my body home on a freight train 

So everyone can see me when I pass 

And don't worry none about no fancy funeral 

'Cause it don't matter how they lay me down 

Just See they bury me out by mama's apple tree 

And send my body back to my home town 

Yes, just see they bury me out by mama's apple tree 

And send my body back to my home town...
