Jason Lenyer Buchanan - Bury Me With A Broom

There're some folks 'can see in her the angel that she is
She rolls her eyes and slightly smiles, but she won't hear the lies
She's gon' be surprised to find her room reserved in heaven
Been baptized and seen the light, but she don't want to die
If you get her talkin' about the way things used to be
She'll tell you 'bout her paintings and maybe 'bout her dreams
Now those days are fading, 'cause life's made it's demands
There's work that needs its working, she smiles and stands and says
Bury me with a broom, my work is not yet done
My life was giv'n to others and my dreams were gave up on
I'm still working out how to care for folks I love when I'm done living
So bury me with a broom and I'll start cleaning heaven
Her choice was made so long ago, what good is in what might
She knows the way for things to be, and makes sure all is right
Even when she falls asleep, she wakes with slightest sound
No one else is will make things right and that's why she's around
But if you get her talkin' about the way things used to be
She'll tell you 'bout her paintings and maybe about her dreams
Now those days are fading, 'cause life's made it's demands
There's work that needs its working, she smiles and stands and says
Bury me with a broom, my work is not yet done
My life was giv'n to others and my dreams were gave up on
I'm still working out how to care for folks I love when I'm done living
So bury me with a broom and I'll start cleaning heaven
I'll start cleaning heaven
So ask me how she's doing
One day I hope to smile and tell you about a sculpture she welded in the night
Or about how painting flowers, means she's angry with the world
My lady is a dreamer, but she's trading hope for love
But if you get her talkin' about the way things used to be
She'll tell you 'bout her paintings and maybe 'bout her dreams
Now those days are fading, 'cause life's made it's demands
There's work that needs its working, she smiles and stands and says
Bury me with a broom, my work is not yet done
My life was giv'n to others and my dreams were gave up on
I'm still working out how to care for folks I love when I'm done living
So bury me with a broom and I'll start cleaning heaven.
I'll start cleaning heaven
I'll start cleaning heaven
