Well out in the country we didn't have mortuaries and so it was always customary For the undertaker to do his job and lay your kin out there at home. Well the church would loan ya foldin' chairs and you'd have visitation and everything right there and when the nighttime come you had to sit up with the dead 'cause it wasn't right to leave them alone. The last time I sat up was '65 when my old arthritic Uncle Fred died he was 97 and so stooped over the morticians couldn't straighten him out. They used used a loggin' chain to hold him down and covered that all up with a cape and a gown And didn't tell nobody in the family 'cause that's the kind of thing folks just don't want to know about Well we were all sittin' there it was 3 in the mornin' When there come up a cloud, a thunderin lightnin' and stormin' The lightnin' flashed and the thunder clapped and the chain 'round old Uncle Fred went 'snap' and rattled and fell to the floor with a thump and Uncle Fred just sat right up. Well I ain't sittin' up with the dead no more, I don't know 'bout you I ain't sittin' up with the dead no more no matter what ya say or do. They say the dead can't hurt ya cause they already left but what they left can sure make ya hurt yourself. And I ain't sittin up with the dead no more since the dead started sittin up too. Well when Uncle Fred sat up so did everybody there and there came a great partin' of the foldin chairs. The preacher nearly knocked me
