Plant Me A Rose

When I'm done with this cruel world
plant me a rose
let it grow on my grave as I rest
at last
I'll be going home.

as I lay there down
beneath my rose
don't shed one tear
for the life that I lead
at last
I'll be at peace.

In the next world
I'm sure to find me some peace
there'll be no one to take advantage of me
at last
I'll be free.

It's a long way
a long life
filled with despair
many a treachery befallen me
But at last
I'm going home
