Put My Ashes In The F-Hole (of a guitar)

Farrell Jackson - all music and vocals.

Doug Millaway - lyric

My friend Doug Millaway wrote these lyric that sort of summed up a legacy I'd like to leave behind. He graciously let me use them for this song. It's from my "Farrell Jackson #3" album. It's one of several "Beatles flavored" songs that I've done over the years. One day I thought it might be fun to gather them up and present them in an album format....a sort of "best of" Farrell Jackson cd. Time will tell if I ever get to that, lol.

Put My Ashes In The F-Hole

Verse 1:
When I'm gone, will you take care of me?
Can you fulfill my destiny?
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
Don't put me in the ground, hidden in the weeds.

Chorus:
Put my ashes in the F-hole.
Don't put me under ground.
When you play that guitar, man.,
I wanna be part of the sound.
Put my ashes in the F-hole
Of your trusty old ax
And every time you play a song
You know that I will be back.

Verse 2:
When I'm in the hearse and carried away
No need for any cryin'. It's time to play.
Don't want no flowers on top of me.
Don't put me in the ground, hidden in the weeds.

Bridge:
Don't want no cryin',. Don't allow no pain.
Don't put me out in the freezin' rain.
It's my final wish. Listen to me.'
Don't put me in the ground, hidden in the weeds.
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
When I'm gone will you take care of me?
Can you fulfill my destiny?
A friend in need is a friend indeed
Don't put me in the ground hidden in the weeds
