if i should fall from grace with god...

i recently read a list of the most popular funeral songs . which sparked me to e-mail my friends to let them know that if any one of these songs are played when i die, that i will come back to haunt them. :)

of course, that brings up the question, what do i want played at my wake ( i shall have no funeral, no mourners for me). i've known for awhile that the song i want played is 'if i should fall from grace with god' by the almighty pogues. i will also expect a drunken karoke version as well. which my friend 'b' has generously offered to lead.

if i should fall from grace with god
where no doctor can relieve me
if im buried neath the sod
but the angels wont receive me
let me go, boys
let me go, boys
let me go down in the mud
where the rivers all run dry
this land was always ours
was the proud land of our fathers
it belongs to us and them
not to any of the others
let them go, boys
let them go, boys
let them go down in the mud
where the rivers all run dry
bury me at sea
where no murdered ghost can haunt me
if i rock upon the waves
then no corpse can lie upon me
its coming up three, boys
keeps coming up three, boys
let them go down in the mud
where the rivers all run dry
if i should fall from grace with god
where no doctor can relieve me
if im buried neath the sod
but the angels wont receive me
let me go, boys
let me go, boys
let me go down in the mud
where the rivers all run dry

here is a small sample for your listening enjoyment.

happy halloween y'all!

ps ...not a real coffin nor corpse. it's taken from the haunted deer lake walk.
