PLACE TO LIE

(Chris Adams/

Backshop Music)

Well I gotta find me a place to lie

Yeah I gotta find me a place to lie

Some little churchyard, shady and green,

In some little village that I’ve never seen,

Down with the beetles, down with the stones

Down with the zombies in the dead zone.

Yes I gotta find me a place to lie,

Said I gotta find me a place to lie,

Out on the ocean, stormy and deep

Under the waves, where the fish never sleep,

Down with the turtles, down with the eels

Down with the sharks and their swim away meals.

Yes I gotta find me a place to lie

Said I need find me a place to lie

Well I gotta find me a place to lie,

Yes I gotta find me a place to lie,

Above the clouds where the sky’s always blue,

I’m closer to heaven, yeah I’m further from you,

Up with the eagles, up with the birds,

Up with the jayhawks, in a world without words,

Yeah I gotta find me a place to lie

Yeh I gotta find me a place to lie

Said I gotta find me a place to lie

Yes I gotta find me a place to lie

A place to lie, place to lie

Place to lie, place to lie….
