Lonesome day



They carried my girl to the burying ground
They carried my girl to the burying ground
They carried my girl to the burying ground
I watched her as they laid her down



    Today has been a lonesome day
    Today has been a lonesome day
    Today has been a lonesome day
    And tommorrow gonna be the same old way



Go big my grave with a silver spade
Go big my grave with a silver spade
Go big my grave with a silver spade
And mark the plce where I'll be laid



  *Refrain



Dig you ever here a church bell toll
Dig you ever here a church bell toll
Dig you ever here a church bell toll
You'll know by that I'm dead and gone



  *Refrain
