Did you ever hear that coffin sound?
Did you ever hear them church bells toll?
Well, there's one kind of favor I'll ask for you
You can see that my grave is kept clean
And there's one last favor I'll ask for you
There's just one last favor I'll ask for you
Means another poor boy is underground
And my heart stopped beating and my hands turned cold
Well, there's one kind of favor I'll ask for you
And there's two white horses following me
Waiting on my burying ground
And my heart stopped beating and my hands turned cold
Did you ever hear them church bells toll?
Now, I believe what the Bible told
There's just one kind of favor I'll ask for you
And there's two white horses following me
Did you ever hear them church bells toll?
Did you ever hear that coffin sound?
