Bury me in bottomland
With my grandpa's rifle in my hand
Lord, just take me as I am
And bury me in bottomland
I am just a country boy
Where I come from didn't have no choice
But I've done well or so I'm told
So baby wear my watch, baby sell my gold
And bury me in bottomland
With my grandpa's rifle in my hand
Lord, just take me as I am
And bury me in bottomland
Don't care which box,
don't care which stone All I care is what I got on
Don't need no suit, don't need no tie
I don't wanna be hard to recognize
Bury me in bottomland
With my grandpa's rifle in my hand
Lord,
just take me as I am And bury me in bottomland
Don't know if heaven's got big tall pines
Or wide tailed bucks with ten inch tines
But if I get there and it looks like home
Then woods gonna be the first place I go
So bury me in bottomland
With my grandpa's rifle in my hand
Lord, just take me as I am
And bury me in bottomland
