Thread Name: Lyr Req: When I die, don't bury me at all...
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: When I die, don't bury me at all...
I recall from somewhere these words:

Well, when I die don't bury me at all
Just pickle my bones in alcohol
Put a marble slab at my head and feet
And tell them all I've gone to sleep

Sam Doores & Alynda Lee Segarra call their version "Rich And A Ramblin' Boy" and they sing:

Now when I die don't bury me at all
Just place me away in alcohol
My 44, lie at my feet
Tell everyone I'm just asleep.
