See That My Grave Is Kept Clean

There's one kind favor that I ask of you
There's one kind favor that I ask of you
There's one kind favor that I ask of you
Won't you please
Please see my grave's kept clean

Long line ain't got no end
Lord, there's a long line that ain't got no end
It's a long long line that ain't got no end
Bad wind that never came
It's a bad wind that never came

Two white horses standing in line
There's two white horses standing in line
There's two white horses
And they're standing in line
Take me to that burying ground
Take me to that burying ground

My heart stopped beating and my hands are cold
My heart stopped beating and my hands are cold
Well my heart stopped beating
And my hands were cold
It was along what the Good Book said
What the Bible told
What the Bible told

Have you ever heard that coffin sound
Have you ever heard that coffin sound
Have you ever heard that coffin sound
Did you know that this poor boy's beneath the ground
Don't you know this poor boy's neath the ground

Dig my grave with a silver spade
Why don't you dig my grave with a silver spade
Why don't you dig my grave with a silver spade
Ah, lay me down with a golden chain
Why don't you lay me down with a golden chain

Have you ever heard the church bell song
Ah, have you heard the church bell song
Have you ever heard that church bell song
You know that this poor boy's dead and gone
You know this poor boy's dead and gone

One kind favor that I ask of you
There's one kind favor that I ask of you

One kind favor that I ask of you, ah
Please see that my grave's kept clean
