lyrics

maybe they'll bury me
in a cadillac
with a purple robe
draped cross my back

maybe i'll wear a golden crown
the hands of kings gonna lower me down

free
free
free from your jealousy

maybe they'll bury me
in a paper sack
without a thread
to cover my back

toss me down in a hole
and write, 'here lies another ragged soul'

free
free
free from your sympathy

maybe i'll meet the devil
maybe he'll shake my hand
throw me down, down, down
into the pit of the damned

maybe i'll talk to God
at the pearly gates
all the angels'll shake the heavens
rejoicing for my fate

maybe they'll throw me in an unmarked grave
or the grandest tomb that ever man's hands made

(but i'll be)

free
free
from your jealousy

free
free
from sympathy

free
free
from everything
