[Verse 1]
There's a-gonna be some slow, slow walkin'
There's gonna be some sad, sad talkin'
There's gonna be some flower bringin'
There's gonna be some sad, sad singin'
Over you, child, woah, I said over you
Hey, hey, oh baby, if I ever hear you say we're through

[Verse 2]
Oh, there'll be a hole about six-feet deep
For you, baby, to take your sleep
Into a coffin and a-down you'll go
Where you will stay there, sleet or snow
Over you, oh-oh-oh, I said over you, oh, oh
Over you, pretty baby, I ever hear you say we're through

[Verse 3]
Yeah, there'll be a long, black Cadillac
And all your folks will be dressed in black
Yeah, baby, they'll be puttin' you away
Pretty mama, they'll be grievin' that day
Over you, it's gonna be all over you, woah
Over you, pretty baby, I ever hear you say we're through

[Refrain]
Woah, I'm gonna have to kill you, baby
Tell me that's what I'll do, what I'll do
Woah, baby, if I ever hear you say we're through
[Refrain]
Yeah, I'm gonna slay you, mama
Now, tell me what'd I say, what'd I say?
Hey baby, if you ever treated me that way

[Refrain]
Wah, gonna kill you, baby
Now, tell me what I'll do, what I'll do?
Woah, baby, if I ever hear you say we're through, ow!
