Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

I told you on the day we wed
I was gonna love you ’til I’s dead
Made you wait ’til our wedding night
That’s the first and the last time I wear white

So if the ties that bind ever do come loose
Tie them in a knot like a hangman’s noose
‘Cause I’ll go to heaven, or I’ll go to hell
Before I’ll see you with someone else

[Bridge]

Put me in the ground
Put me six foot down
And let the stone say

[Chorus]

Here lies the girl whose only crutch
Was loving one man just a little too much
If you go before I do
I’m gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig two

[Verse 2]

Well, it won’t be whiskey, won’t be meth
It’ll be your name on my last breath
If divorce or death ever do us part
The coroner will call it a broken heart

[Bridge]

So put me in the ground
Put me six foot down
And let the stone say

[Chorus]

Here lies the girl whose only crutch
Was loving one man just a little too much
If you go before I do
I’m gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig two

[Lead Break]

Dig two
Ooh-ooh

[Bridge 2]

I took your name when I took those vows (took those vows)
I meant ’em back then, and I mean ’em right now
Oh, right now

[Verse 3]

If the ties that bind ever do come loose
If forever ever ends for you
If that ring gets a little too tight
You might as well, read me my last rights

And let the stone say

[Chorus]

Here lies the girl whose only crutch
Was loving one man just a little too much
If you go before I do
Gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig, uh

Heavy stone right next to mine
We’ll be together ’til the end of time
Don’t you go before I do
I’m gonna tell the gravedigger that he better dig two

[Outro]

I told you on the day we wed
I was gonna love you ’til I’s dead
