They Came In Black Lyrics

Well it rained so hard hell didn??t seem bad
Someone prayed for his sins
The preacher cried more than the poor boys dad
They put his body in
Well they came in black and they dug him a hole
Someone prayed for his sins
The rain did pour and they cried a little more
They put his body in
The band played songs faster than they should
Someone prayed for his sins
That??s why those songs never sounded so good
They put his body in
He used to buy me soda pop when I was young
Someone prayed for his sins
Then he bought me a beer when I turned twenty one
They put his body in
The worms have had their way by now
Someone prayed for his sins
I want to give him a hug but I don??t know how
They put his body in
It??s a beautiful world it??s a beautiful day
Someone prayed for his sins
Those are the words written on the grave
They put his body in
