Sammy Walker Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone Lyrics

I used to play so fine upon the beach
Your knives and clubs were out of reach
Oh how we danced on winter's wonderland
But you did your job, you did me in
You beat my head, you stole my skin
And now I'm just a carcass on the sand

But when the lighthouse by the sea
Is wavin' fare thee well to me
Will you miss me, will you miss me when I'm gone?

I had my babies in the spring
Where poppies grow and robins sing
I'll watch them while they live and learn and grow
I'll overcome my handicap
And leave my leg clung to your trap
And watch the summer sun turn into snow

But when the eagle in the sky's
A-floatin' down to say goodbye
Will you miss me, will you miss me when I'm gone?

The desert sands blow through my face I've won the trial and lost the case
The beast of God weeps softly in the morgue
I've sung my song beneath the moon
My time ain't long, it's coming soon
The cancer strikes again without a cure

So when I'm laid to rest
Below the canyons of the west
Will you miss me, will you miss me when I'm gone?

You've set your sail to take the whale
You've turned the trick, you've told the tale
You've speared the fate of every livin' thing
The seas are still, there's none to kill
There's only your blood left to spill
You've proved yourself, no doubt, to be the king

But when you're all alone
Sittin' high upon your throne
Will you miss me, will you miss me when I'm gone?
