I've been travelin' for so many days   Through the valleys I have gone   I've been searchin' in so many ways   For the things that I have done      Now I ask you, do you love me?   And don't tell me any lies      I will keep on ridin' in the early morning light   'Til they lay my body down      Behind the conscience of every man   Is a thing we all must trust   As I look across the land   I see shadows in the dust      So how can you judge me   When you don't know me?   I know you'll miss me when   I'm dead and gone      I will keep on ridin' in the early morning light   'Til they lay my body down      So close your eyes and you will find me   I'll be watching over you   I will be with you, you'll feel my spirit   I know your faith will put you through      Now, I ask you, do you love me?   And don't tell me any lies      I will keep on ridin' in the early morning light   'Til they lay my body down   I will keep on ridin' in the early morning light   'Til they lay my body, 'til they lay my body   'Til they lay my body down      I know you'll miss me, I know you'll miss me
