Hank Williams - Big Box of Hank Williams

Six More Miles

Oh the rain is slowly fallin',
And my heart is so sore,
Six more miles and leave my darlin',
Never on this earth to meet no more.

Chorus

Six more miles to the graveyard,
Six more miles, long and sad,
Six more miles and leave my darlin',
Leave the best friend, i ever had.

Oh I hear the train a-comin',
Bringin' my darlin' back home,
Six more miles, to the graveyard,
And i'll be left here all a- lone.

Repeat chorus

This verse not on record, but in both early song books:

Left her in that lonely church yard,
Left my darlin' alone,
Now i'm sad, my heart is cryin',
As i wander thru life alone.
