Pardon this coffin please step aside pardon this coffin my brother just died
Now don't you give me no angry look or I'll knock you down
I'm takin' this coffin puttin' it six foot down and turn it six foot down
He was a champion and he was a chief till he lost that good job and went on relief
And then came the downfall of spirit and mind
Te devil took to him and he took the wine
So pardon this coffin...
[ dobro ]
Yeah not many mourners but I'm not surprised
Not many mourners just me and two guys
Twas all that matters plain as his friend not many mourners it's the sad way it ends
So pardon this coffin...
