Forest Lawn
[00:00.00]Forest Lawn (Remaster) - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)
[00:07.09]Oh lay me down in Forest Lawn
[00:09.29]In a silver casket
[00:11.41]With golden flowers over my head
[00:13.27]In a silver basket
[00:15.64]Let the drum and bugle corp play taps
[00:18.24]While cannons roar
[00:20.14]Sixteen liveried employees sell souvenirs
[00:22.82]From the funeral store
[00:24.09]I want to go simply when I go
[00:27.96]They'll give me a simple funeral there I know
[00:32.04]With a casket lined in fleece
[00:34.02]And fireworks spelling out 'Rest In Peace'
[00:36.07]So take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn
[00:39.59]Oh lay me down in Forest Lawn
[00:41.59]They understand there
[00:44.12]They have a heavenly choir
[00:45.73]And a military band there
[00:48.15]Just put me in their care
[00:50.06]I'll find my comfort there
[00:52.11]With sixteen planes in a last salute
[00:54.18]They'll drop a cross in a parachute
[00:56.06]I want to go simply when I go
[01:00.12]They'll give me a simple funeral there I know
[01:04.07]With a hundred strolling strings
[01:06.16]And topless dancers with golden wings
[01:08.22]Oh take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn
[01:11.49]Oh come come come come
[01:16.41]Come to the church in the wild wood
[01:22.39]Kindly leave a contribution in the pail
[01:28.76]Be as simple and as trusting as a child would
[01:35.45]And we'll sell you the church in the dale
[01:42.73]To find a simple resting place
[01:44.86]Is my desire
[01:47.02]To lay me down with a smiling face
[01:48.90]Comes a little bit higher
[01:51.55]My likeness cast in brass
[01:53.42]Will stand in plastic grass
[01:55.38]While hidden weights and springs
[01:57.15]Tip it's hat to the mourners filing past
[01:59.58]I want to go simply when I go
[02:03.44]They'll give me a simple funeral there I know
[02:07.42]I'll lie beneath the sand
[02:09.46]With piped in tapes of Billy Graham
[02:11.53]Oh take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn
[02:14.43]Rock of Ages cleft for me
[02:19.24]For a slightly higher fee
[02:23.57]Oh take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn
[02:28.40]Amen

Oh lay me down in Forest Lawn
In a silver casket
With golden flowers over my head
In a silver basket
Let the drum and bugle corp play taps
While cannons roar
Sixteen liveried employees sell souvenirs
From the funeral store
I want to go simply when I go
They'll give me a simple funeral there I know
With a casket lined in fleece
And fireworks spelling out 'Rest In Peace'
So take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn
Oh lay me down in Forest Lawn
They understand there
They have a heavenly choir
And a military band there
Just put me in their care
I'll find my comfort there
With sixteen planes in a last salute
They'll drop a cross in a parachute
I want to go simply when I go
They'll give me a simple funeral there I know
With a hundred strolling strings
And topless dancers with golden wings
Oh take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn
Oh come come come come
Come to the church in the wild wood
Kindly leave a contribution in the pail
Be as simple and as trusting as a child would
And we'll sell you the church in the dale
To find a simple resting place
Is my desire
To lay me down with a smiling face
Comes a little bit higher
My likeness cast in brass
Will stand in plastic grass
While hidden weights and springs
Tip it's hat to the mourners filing past
I want to go simply when I go

I'll lie beneath the sand
