Intro: When I'm dead put me 10 miles deep Verse1: Well hand me up my shotgun Maggie Mae Devil's come to take yer boy away I been spotted on the run But I'll be waitin' when they come Hand me up my shotgun Maggie Mae Verse 2: I was born a poor man's only son It ain't my fault I grew up on the run Did my time as a workin' man But they kept blood stains on my hands I was born a poor man's only son Chorus: When I'm dead put me ten miles deep When I'm dead put me ten miles deep Brother when you lay me down Down beneath the cold hard ground You better put me ten miles deep Verse 3: I keep my pistol by my head at night Lordy I can't seem to do no right My whole town they know my name I killed a man and won my fame I keep my pistol by my head at night Verse 4: When I'm dead put me ten miles deep When Jesus comes he won't disturb my sleep I knew it when they shot me down I felt the flames from under ground When I'm dead put me ten miles deep Chorus: (Played as above) Brother when you lay me down Down beneath the cold hard ground You better put me ten miles deep
