No Law Can Bury Me Deep Enough

They dug the hole, six feet down, Judge wrote my name like it owned the ground. But dirt won’t hold what was born in flame, I rise again when they call my name. Lawmen swear they’ve seen my last breath, But I’ve been cheating death.

No law can bury me deep enough, The grave rejects what it can’t own. I was forged in fire, cut in rough, No law can bury me deep enough.

I’ve seen the gallows, I’ve seen the rope, But the night don’t tighten what I can’t choke. You can lay me down but I won’t stay still, My spirit breaks through the strongest will. Every shovel falls like a broken word, But I rise unheard.

No law can bury me deep enough, Stone and chains don’t weigh that much. You can write my fate, you can call my bluff, No law can bury me deep enough.

I’m the sin the dirt won’t take, The oath no preacher can unmake. I’m the fire the night can’t hide, I walk alive on the other side.

No law can bury me deep enough, The grave can’t silence the truth I’ve sung. I was born too wild, my soul too rough, No law can bury me deep enough.
