[Verse 1]
Mason died on Monday, we bricked him in the wall
All his children grew and grew
They ain't never grew so tall before
They may never grow so tall again
[Verse 2]
We dug him up on Tuesday, he hardly aged a day
Taught them all he ever knew
They never knew so much before
They may never know so much again
[Refrain]
Mason was a mighty man, mighty man was he
Always said "When I'm dead and gone, don't you weep for me"
Hey
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
The wall collapsed on Wednesday, we chalked it up to fate
All his children ran and hid
They ain't never hid so well before
Swore they'd never show their face again
[Verse 4]
Thursday came then Friday, with buyers tall and bright
But Mason's children cooked the stew
And cleaned up when the feast was through
Swore they'd never had such times before
