2/16/1999 alternate lyrics

If I die before my time
Oh sweet Lord of mine don't forget me if I die

And if I go before I'm old
Oh lover of mine please don't forget me if I go

I find it much more than this tune
roll it up, roll tight and simple if I could
If I knew just a simple man's servant
I'd roll it up and spread it out throughout and out

To reconcile our old and out

I caught the devil and the Lord
dancing arm in arm just to reconcile
and so I roll it up for me, Bartender
give me the drink you gave
to Jesus when he rose again

Ah, if I die before I'm old
ah lover of mine please forgive me if I go

On bended knees I ask you, go
some bended knees, God, I pray it so, Bartender
Bartender
main lyrics
If I go before I'm old
oh, brother of mine, please don't forget me
if I go

Bartender, please, fill my glass for me
with the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground

Oh, and if I die before my time
oh, sweet sister of mine, please don't regret me
if I die

Bartender, please, fill my glass for me
with the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground
bartender, please, fill my glass for me
with the wine you gave Jesus that set him free
after three days in the ground, in the ground

I'm on bended knees, I pray, bartender, please

When I was young, I never think about it
now I can't get it out of my mind

I'm on bended knees, father, please

Oh, and if all this gold should steal my soul away
oh, sweet mother of mine, please redirect me
if this gold

Bartender, you see, the wine that's drinking me
came from the vine that strung Judas from the devil's tree
his roots deep, deep in the ground
bartender, you see, the wine that's drinking me
was the wine that strung Judas from the devil's tree
his roots deep, deep in the ground, in the ground
watch the light

I'm on bended knees, oh, bartender, please
I'm on bended knees, father, please

When I was young, I never think about it
now I just wanna run and die

I'm on bended knees, oh, bartender, please
bartender, please
