I have worn a path from the liquor store
through the woods and down to your grave
Nobody but me goes down there no more
They never loved you like I loved you anyway
I keep the weeds from growing on your stone
while you lie there in the cold and keep me company
I don't have much to do, since the day they buried you
spend all my night just drinking at your grave
verse 2
They never found your killer and they never will
no stone to mark the grave where he does lay
No epitaph for him to be remembered by
now no one but the Devil knows his name
I come here in the nighttime and I'll sing to you
I'll promise that my love shall never die
Sometimes I pass out drunk and sleep here next to you
I spend my nighttimes mourning at your grave
verse 3
Now people think I'm crazy and perhaps I am
When I walk through the town, they look away
Some of them still think I am a guilty man
I was the last one that was seen with you that day
But I was passed out on the couch from drinkin'
The note said you were going for a drive
Inside my head I hear that gospel ringin'
At nights when I'm alone here by your grave
verse 4
So damn them all to hell, I do not need them
The only thing I need has gone away
They look at my face and see a demon
I look into their eyes and they're afraid
They whisper and they point with waggin' fingers
but I could care less what they think of me
The only thing I care of is what lingers
the memory of our love down at your grave
