Jesus gonna take me down, to the other side of town,
And you won't see me slippin' away
And for all these years, I drank away my fears,
There's noone left to shed a tear

(chorus)
Because you won't see roses on my grave
You won't see roses on my grave
I lie here sleepin' in this bed I made and baby now
You won't see roses on my grave

Captured the butterfly, held tight and watch him die,
My daddy's come to take me there
And you're the one who cared but lord knows i'll see you there
Your soul's electric, it never fades

(chorus)
