They'll lift me up and lay me down
(Lay me down, gently down)
Till I reach consecrated ground
(Along the old Lych Way)
On six strong shoulders I will sway
(Lay me down, gently down)
Till six feet under I'll be laid
(Along the old Lych Way)
Requiem aeternam
(Requiem aeternam)
Dona eis requiem
Along the old Lych Way
ย
From Bellever to Lydford town
(Lay me down, gently down)
Through Sandy Ford & Conies Down
(Along the old Lych Way)
At every mile a marking stone
(Lay me down, gently down)
So they can rest their weary bones
(Along the old Lych Way)
Requiem aeternam
(Requiem aeternam)
Dona eis requiem
Along the old Lych Way
ย
At Lydford church I'll make my end
(Lay me down, gently down)
And I'll never cross the Dart again
Along the old Lych Way
A Christian man could do no less
(Lay me down, gently down)
Than ask his friends this last request
(Along the old Lych Way)
Oh, Requiem aeternam
(Requiem aeternam)
Dona eis requiem
Along the old Lych Way
ย
They'll lift me up and lay me down
(Lay me down, gently down)
Till I reach consecrated ground
Along the old Lych Way
Along the old Lych Way
Along the old Lych Way
