Ain’t no telling where they might have laid him down
Ain’t no telling where they might have laid him down
Oh, memories most unkind
Mercy for mercy
God, he took a long, long time
And there ain’t no telling where they might have laid him down
It’s an unbroken chain of hearts
It’s an unbroken chain of heart
It’s an unbroken chain of broken hearts
Ain’t no telling where they might have laid him down
Ain’t no telling where they might have laid him down
I bet his preacher was a howling wind
Mercy for mercy
And the darkness his next of kin
And there ain’t no telling where they might have laid him down
It’s an unbroken chain of hearts
It’s an unbroken chain of heart
It’s an unbroken chain of broken hearts
