I'ma big fan of Townes Van Zandt .. there are many songs by him there are good to do covers of,,) but the reason I made the cover of Black Crow was that the number means a lot to me .. do not know if I'm doing several covers:.)

perhaps it may

Great job!  If you are a big Townes Van Zandt fan, "Snowing on Raton" and "If I Needed You" are two great songs to cover also.

Here is the lyrics...

and this song is a cover by the great songwriter Townes van zandt

 

Oh babe, don't lie lonesome after I'm gone

Don't mourn your young life away

Just lower me down with a prayer and a song

Just 'fore the breaking of day

Just 'fore the breaking of day



Well, it's a life worth the living but we all gotta die

All your crying can't do me no good

Just lower me down with a quick sad goodbye

Pour in the black Texas mud

Pour in the black Texas mud

t's a hard road you're travelin', you can't walk it alone

Find a big man to stand beside you

Take him down to the river, show him my bones

Tell him there lies a friend I once knew

There lies a friend I once knew



Well, the black crow's a-screaming, the yellow sun's warm

And the grass tumbles tall down the hill

There's a cold wind building, it's bringin' a storm

When the call of the black crow goes still

When the call of the black crow goes still

Can you add the lyrics in the video description?

 

Interesting and unusual song from you Lars and that makes me curious to read the lyrics.
