Dead From The Heart On Down Lyrics

Vern Gosdin Dead From The Heart On Down

My friends all came around to say goodbye
And to see if there was something they could do
But they knew from the tears that filled my eyes
There was just one way to get me over you

They may as well just lay my soul to rest
And place pretty flowers on my chest
In my head the world still turns around
But I’m dead from the heart on down

Take me in that long black limousine
To the church yard on the other side of town
Just lay me down with all my shattered dreams
‘Cause I’m dead from the heart on down

You may as well just lay my soul to rest
And place pretty flowers on my chest
In my head the world still turns around
But I’m dead from the heart on down

Yes, I’m dead from the heart on down
