Too Poor To Die letra

Last night i had a dream, i dream i died
The undertaker came, to carry me for the ride
I couldn't afford a coffin, embalmin' kinda high
I jumped off my death bed, 'cause i too poor to die
I's in trouble and i'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people, i'm too poor to go lay down and die

I dream at the cemetery, i couldn't afford enough,
To pay the gravediggers, to cover me up
It cost a lot of money, 'cause they was union men
I guess before i die, i better think again
I'm in trouble and i'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people, i'm too poor to go lay down and die

Dream i met the devil, he is waitin' at the gate
Say, "come on in red, you ain't a minute late"
Said he lead me to his kingdom, lead me by my arm
But he wouldn't move my body, less i grease his palm
I's in trouble and i'll tell you the reason why
I'm just too poor people, i'm too poor to go lay down and die
