There's one kind favor I'll ask of you
There's one kind favor I'll ask of you
There's one kind favor I'll ask of you
See that my grave is kept clean
It's a lonely lane ain't got no end 3x
It's a bad old wind don't ever change
There's two white horses in a line 3x
They'll pass beneath that rainbow sign
My heart stopped beating and my hands turned cold 3x
O Lord I believe what the Bible told
Have you ever heard that church bell toll? 3x
You'll know by that I'm dead and gone
Dig my grave with a silver spade 3x
And lower me down with a golden chain
Have you ever heard that coffin sound? 3x
You'll know the poor boy's underground
There's one kind favor I'll ask of you 3x
See that my grave is kept clean
