Lay my body down on Mercy Street
Or deep beneath the darkest seas
Lay my body six feet under down in Old Noarlunga
Right beneath the ghost gum trees
Doesn't matter where
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You won't find me there
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
No grave gonna hold my spirit down
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
Lord knows they'll never keep me in the ground
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
It's alright mama, now don't be sad
It's alright, don't cry for me
They can lock my flesh and bones up until kingdom come
But my spirit will be free
It doesn't matter where
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You won't find me there
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
No grave gonna hold my spirit down
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
Lord knows they'll never keep me in the ground
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
It's a dead end search, it's a nowhere thread
Looking for the living down among the dead
No devil in hell, no angel above
Can separate the saints from the love of God
No grave gonna hold my spirit down
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
Lord knows they'll never keep me in the ground
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
No grave gonna hold my spirit down
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
Lord knows they'll never keep me in the ground
Ain't no grave hold my spirit down
