See That My Grave Is Kept Clean

Good Lord I know

There's one favor I ask of you

I got one kind favor to ask of you

There's one more thing before I go

Won't you see that my grave is kept clean

It's a long long lane that ain't gonna end

It's a long long lane that ain't got no end

Here comes that train, it ain't no friend

I gotta get on board, take me there

Have you ever heard a coffin sound

Have you ever heard a coffin sound

And I think it's time to take me down

You know the poor boys in the ground

Dig my grave with a silver spade

I want you all to listen

you may place four diamonds on my grave

Have you ever heard a death bell toll

Have you ever heard a dead bell toll

Then you know the poor boys dead and gone

Then you know the poor boys dead and gone

Ooo- dead and gone
