Lay me in flowers,
Sweet magnolia,
New Orleans style,
Play, me a funeral procession,
Second line rhythm,
Walk me that mile.

Find, a tomb for my hiding,
Ooh let me just rest in there,
Rest for a while.
Make, a grand presentation,
Ooh all of my family yeah,
Remember my time.

The River is a running,
Mississippi mud,
My life is good,
Today.

Fly, ooh fly,
Cause I got somewhere I gotta be,
Doctors and lawyers,
With all their money,
They won’t find me.

The sky’s so big here,
Arizona dust,
My life is good,
Today.

And I’m so alive now,
Oh it goes so quickly, yeah,
So many roads,
Want to ask for forgiveness,
My friends were all with me yeah,
I was at home.

My heart is so full here,
And my soul reconciled,
My life is good,
Today.

Lay me in flowers,
Sweet magnolia,
New Orleans style,
Ooh and play,
Me a funeral procession,
Second line rhythm,
Walk me that mile.
Second line rhythm,
Walk me that mile.
