The Lake ©Angry Johnny And The Killbillies
Bonesaw Lullaby BMI

I went down to the lake today saw your body floating
Put you there one week before weighted down with stone
Now you’re there for all to see sickly blue and bloated
I went down to the lake today I could hear you laughing

They all thought you had run away left me here a grieving
They always said that you would not stay one day you would be leaving
You laughed at me as you walked away disgusted at my begging
Your laughter seemed to fade away the deeper you were sinking

No matter what they all might say I loved you more than life
Some nights I’d kneel down and pray that you would be my wife
But you were never meant to stay you never really loved me
I sunk you in the lake that day so you’d always be near me

But now you’re floating on the lake your body nearly bursting
Forever I will hear you laugh forever I am cursed
They’re taking me to prison now your body they are burying
I should have let you walk away but I could not bare you leaving

I went down to the lake today saw your body floating
Put you there one week before weighted down with stone
Now you’re there for all to see sickly blue and bloated
I went down to the lake today I could hear you laughing

I get on with my days
In a permanent haze
People think it’s a phase
But my madness is growing…
