Lyrics:

Rotting away by this water hole
Left me no face just an empty soul
I ain't got no one nowhere to go
Ain't nobody's fault except my own

Here I lay all broke and torn
But I'm gonna keep on a holding on
Been wanting to die but too weak to go
Oh please help me stranger I'd die here alone

Oh lay me down lightly
'Cause my eyes I can't see yeah

Oh just help me oh just help me see
Oh baby you gotta help me baby help me please
Oh lay me down lightly
'Cause my eyes I can't see

Putting down people by the score
Now I've been put down six feet or more
I can still feel my face
When they knocked in the nails
You know I could hear my woman a wail
