Give Me My Flowers
(recorded by Rev. James Cleveland, The Consolers, and Slim & The Supreme Angels)
GIVE ME MY FLOWERS
WHILE I YET LIVE
SO THAT I, I, I CAN SEE THE BEAUTY
THAT THEY BRING
FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES
MAY GIVE ME FLOWERS
WHEN I’M SICK…
OR ON MY SICK BED
BUT I’D RATHER HAVE
JUST ONE TULIP RIGHT NOW
THAN A TRUCK LOAD OF ROSES
WHEN I’M DEAD
SPEAK KIND WORDS TO ME
WHILE I CAN HEAR THEM
SO THAT I, I, I CAN HEAR THE BEAUTY
THAT THEY BRING
