Lyrics
Well there?s one kind favour I?ll ask of you,
Well there?s one kind favour I?ll ask of you,
One kind favour I?ll ask of you,
See that my grave is kept clean.
Well there?s two white horses in a line,
Well there?s two white horses in a line,
Two white horses in a line,
Carrying me to my buryin?ground.
Well there?s three black coaches in the rain
Well there?s three black coaches in the rain
Three black coaches in the rain,
Empty now from their heavy load
Did you ever hear that coffin sound?
Did you ever hear that coffin sound?
Did you ever hear that coffin sound?
Being lowered into the ground
Well there?s one kind favour I?ll ask of you,
Well there?s one kind favour I?ll ask of you,
One kind favour I?ll ask of you,
See that my grave is kept clean,
See that my grave is kept clean,
See that my grave is kept clean
