Lonesome Day
(Bobby Osborne - Sonny Osborne)
They carried my girl to the burning ground
They carried my girl to the burning ground
They carried my girl to the burning 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
Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way.
--- Instrumental ---
Go dig my grave with the silver spade
Go dig my grave with the silver spade
Go dig my grave with the silver spade
Mark the place where I'll be laid.
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way.
--- Instrumental ---
Did you ever hear the church bell tone
Did you ever hear the church bell tone
Did you ever hear the church bell tone
You'll know by that I'm dead and gone.
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way...
They carried my girl to the burning ground
They carried my girl to the burning ground
They carried my girl to the burning 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
Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way.
--- Instrumental ---
Go dig my grave with the silver spade
Go dig my grave with the silver spade
Go dig my grave with the silver spade
Mark the place where I'll be laid.
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way.
--- Instrumental ---
Did you ever hear the church bell tone
Did you ever hear the church bell tone
Did you ever hear the church bell tone
You'll know by that I'm dead and gone.
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Today has been a lonesome day
Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way...
