Jeannie C. Riley (born Jeanne Carolyn Stephenson, October 19, 1945) is an American country music and gospel singer. She is best known for her 1968 country and pop hit "Harper Valley PTA" (written by Tom T. Hall), which missed (by one week) becoming the Billboard Country and Pop number one hit at the same time. In subsequent years, she had moderate chart success with country music, but never again duplicated the success of "Harper Valley PTA". She became a born-again Christian and began recording gospel music during the late 1970s. more »

When I am gone sing for me no sad songs plant no flowers at my head
Feed the green grass that coveres me or a dew drop wet
And I hope you'll remember even if I forget
And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

[Chorus:]
My eyes will be blinded my ears will not hear
So sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

[Chorus:]

The stone at my head will say that I'm gone that all my seeds have been sown
But I'll leave with you my memory in silence to live on
And I hope you'll remember even if I forget
And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

[Chorus:]

My eyes will be blinded...
Shed me no tears shed me no tears
