lyrics

Had some trouble in Maryland state, and I can't much say
But I'll tell you what I had to do
In Pennsylvania, stopped in for a smoke and what would you know
I found a love, I felt it true

Her name was Margaret, she's a country girl, a chilly northern girl
She never called me by my name
Packed our belongings and we headed out, going somewhat south
I thought we'd go to New Orleans

When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
In Rising Sun

Down the Ohio, we found what we needed there in Kentucky
And settled just a little north
In Indiana, I bought a farm, it had southern charm
We spent our evenings on the porch

I found a factory where I could work and support her
And the baby that would soon arrive
It was a strong boy named Oliver, that did occur
And brought those smiles to our eyes

When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
In Rising Sun

Days got real long, sometimes, but we did what we had to get by
Had more kids, each one got my mouth and their mother's eyes
Before too long, I turned and saw I was old and gray
I made sure my family knew I loved them, each and every day

When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
When I am dead and done
Bury me in Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
In Rising Sun
