Rosewood Casket
there's a little rosewood casket
resting on a marble stand
with a packet of old love letter
go and bring them to me sister
Read them all for me tonight
i have often try, but i couldn't
for the tear that fills my eyes
when i'm death and in my casket
when i'm gently fall asleep
fall asleep to wakes in heaven
dearest sister to not weep
take his letter and his locket
place them gently on my heart
but this golden ring that he gaves me
from my finger never part
there's a little rosewood casket resting on a marble stand
with a packet of old letter
oooooohhoooooo
ooooohhhhooooo
mmmmhhhmmmmmmmm
oooohhhhooooooooooooooo
hhhhmmmmhhhhhmmmmmmhhm
resting on a marble stand
with a packet of old love letter
go and bring them to me sister
Read them all for me tonight
i have often try, but i couldn't
for the tear that fills my eyes
when i'm death and in my casket
when i'm gently fall asleep
fall asleep to wakes in heaven
dearest sister to not weep
take his letter and his locket
place them gently on my heart
but this golden ring that he gaves me
from my finger never part
there's a little rosewood casket resting on a marble stand
with a packet of old letter
oooooohhoooooo
ooooohhhhooooo
mmmmhhhmmmmmmmm
oooohhhhooooooooooooooo
hhhhmmmmhhhhhmmmmmmhhm
