about

Written by Katie Clarke (Katie Clarke Music); Sung by The Boxcar Lilies

lyrics

Don’t send me up to heaven when I die Lord
Ain’t the kind of place I’d like to be
The saints and angels are doin’ fine without me
Don’t send me up to heaven when I leave

I’d rather be some lonesome restless spirit
Roamin’ round the forest and the trees
So don’t send me up to heaven when I die Lord
I know they’re doing fine there without me

Just let me haunt the quiet roads at midnight
And linger in the waves upon the sea
I promise I won’t bother anybody
Just don’t send me up to heaven when I leave
