Lyrics for your Tombstone
cemetery
It's that time of year when decorative tombstones appear on front yards and stoops. If you could inscribe your actual grave marker with a lyric from a song, what would you choose? We'll spin those songs just after 9am.
Here's what we played:
"Living in Paradise" Elvis Costello and the Attractions
'Cause meanwhile up in heaven they are waiting at the gate
Saying 'We'd always knew you'd make it,
Didn't think you'd come this late.
"I'll Fly Away" Allison Krauss and Gillian Welch
Some bright morning when this life is over, I'll fly away
"Tangled Up in Blue" Bob Dylan
The only thing I knew how to do
Was to keep on keepin' on
Like a bird that flew
"If I Had a Boat" Lyle Lovett
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said, 'kemo sabe,
Kiss my ass I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea'
