  • 作词 : Paxton
    Oh lay me down in Forest Lawn in a silver casket
    put golden flowers over my head in a silver basket
    While the drum and bugle corps
    play taps while cannons roar
    while 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'
    Oh, 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 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 in golden in 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
    tips my hat to the mourners filing past
    I want to go simply when I go
    they'll give me a simple funeral there I know
    I'll lie beneath the sand
    with piped in tapes of Billy Graham.
    Oh, take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn.
    Rock of ages cleft for me, for a slightly higher fee
    Oh, take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn
