Johnny Cash Oh, Bury me not Letras:
[Recitation:] Lord, I've never lived where
churches grow I loved creation better as it stood
That day you finished it so long ago And looked
upon your work and called it good I know that
others find you in the light That sifted down
through tinted window panes And yet I seem to feel
you near tonight In this dim, quiet starlight on
the plains I thank you, Lord, that I'm placed so
well That you've made my freedom so complete That
I'm no slave to whistle, clock or bell Nor weak
eyed prisoner of Waller Street Just let me live my
life as I've begun And give me work that's open to
the sky Make me a partner of the wind and sun And
I won't ask a life that's soft or high Let me be
easy on the man that's down Let me be square and

generous with all I'm careless sometimes, Lord,
when I'm in town But never let them say I'm mean
or small Make me as big and open as the plains And
honest as the horse between my knees Clean as a
wind that blows behind the rains Free as the hawk
that circles down the breeze Forgive me, Lord, if
sometimes I forget You know about the reasons that
are hid You understand the things that gall or
fret Well, you knew me better than my mother did
Just keep an eye on all that's done or said And
right me sometimes when I turn aside And guide me
on that long, dim trail ahead That stretched
upward toward the great divide Oh, bury me not on
the lone prairie These words came low and
mournfully From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
On his dying bed at the close of day Oh, bury me
not and his voice failed there But we took no heed
to his dying prayer In a shallow grave just six by
three We buried him there on the lone prairie.
