Nashville Grass (For Woody) lyrics

(G. Johnson/APJJ/G. Lowe)

Someone tell me, do you know
Where did Allen Woody go and were you there?
I was told with great remorse
He fell off his rocking horse and landed in his chair

Southern daylight hurts my eyes
Standing under southern skies as I stare
Somewhere down in Tennessee
The scene was all too much for me to bear

All my good friends, gather around
On the Nashville burial ground
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/big_sugar/nashville_grass_for_woody.html ]
Nashville grass that the sun burned brown
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
We all got to stand in the same judgement
For a lifetime lived and a lifetime spent
Nashville grass singing one more song
Carry him along, boys, carry him along
I saw these things come to pass
Standing on the Nashville grass

Standing in the Sunday suit
I saw his own black cowboy boots

Tell me someone, do you know
Where did Allen Woody go and were you there?
Were you there?
I was there

Nashville grass that the sun burned brown
Ashes to ashes we all fall down
We all got to stand in the same judgement
For a lifetime lived and a lifetime spent

Nashville grass singing one more song
Carry him along, boys, carry him along
I saw these things come to pass
Standing on the Nashville grass
