Lyrics
Gone away, don't you wanna go?
Gone away, don't you wanna go?
Gone away, don't you wanna go?
Gone to my home on the other shore
There's just one kind favor I ask of you
There is one kind favor I'll ask of you
One kind favor I'll ask of you
See that my grave is kept clean
Dig my grave with a silver spade
Won't you dig my grave with a silver spade?
Dig my grave with a silver spade
Ease me down with a golden chain
Did you ever hear a church bell tone?
Did you ever hear those church bells tone?
Have you ever heard church bells' tone?
Then you know I'm dead and gone
They say, "Those streets are paved with gold"
Well, they say, "Those streets are paved with gold"
Oh, they say, "Those streets are paved with gold"
Lord, have mercy on my soul
Oh, Lord, have mercy on my soul
Lord, have mercy on my soul
Oh, Lord, have mercy on my soul
