The sugar house is burnin' down
Fire runnin' all about
A moment to go, I need to slow down
Bodies layin' on the ground
No one can know, I needed to go

Oh how you lay, oh how you lay

The sugar house is fallin' down
And you're the only one around
With nothing to show, I needed to know

Oh how you lay, I needed to know, oh how you lay
Oh how you lay, oh how you lay

My love was dressed in white again
I know I'll be linin' up, I know I'll be linin' up

And I know I'll be linin' up
