Lonesome Graveyard
Lyricist:Sam Lightnin' Hopkins
Sleep on, sleep on, sleep on Little girl, sleep on, just sleep on Sleep on, sleep on Little girl, just sleep on, sleep on
Well, I know you're dead, resting darling, but one day I know the graveyard gonna be my home Every living people got to die, human beings
Mama was rocking by the window howling ‽My poor child is dead, yes, she's dead Yeah, you know my poor child is dead and gone†But made me feel so good, she said this
Sleep on, sleep on, son Do you know your mother is coming on? The graveyard ain't too beautiful But it will give you a home so long Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
I wouldn't mind dying Poor Lightnin' would just have to lay dead so long Wouldn't mind dying But I'd have to lay dead so long
That I wouldn't have a chance To come back here and tell my friends No, nobody, what is going on
Told my baby, don't worry if I die Darling, I know I'm gonna leave your little bed warm Don't worry if poor Lightnin' lay down and die 'Cause I'm gonna leave your little bed very warm
You know, I can't worry when I'm dead and gone, but one thing Little girl, I know you is coming home
