Lyrics:

1965 album The 3rd Time AroundWriter(s): Roger MillerWell, I think I finally found me a sure-fire way to forgetIt''s so simple, I''m surprised I hadn''t done thought of it before yetIt''s foolproof - well, it''s foolhardy, maybe, but who knowsAnyway, here I am walking toward where the cold dark water flowsCos all it takes is:One dying and a buryin''One dying and a buryin''Some cryingSix carrying meI wanna be freeOh...I wanna be freeFree from all this heartache and regretAnd free from pining for the love I can''t forgetThe love that once was warm and then just somehow turned to hateMade my life a prison from which there''s only one escapeAnd that''s:One dying and a buryin''One dying and a buryin''Some cryin''Six carryin'' meI wanna be freeOne dying and a buryin''One dying and a buryin''Some cryin''Six carryin'' meI wanna be free
