hope that we don't stay together
cause your name will be my suicide letter
and when my brothers find out about it
they will tell my sisters no doubt about it
and
then they'll put you in the car
and they'll go on down to the reservoir
and when my family feels the boldest
they'll throw you in where the water's coldest
i
hope no one does what you do
because then this story would be true
i'd be dead and you'd be too
and i wouldn't have a chance to fly the coup
an i
know that we don't get along
though you lay with me while i write this song
remember me this when i wake today
it's that i'd rather be dead than too far away
we can't be together anyway
and i'd rather be dead than too far away
