Gone away don't you wanna go Gone away don't you wanna go Gone away, don't you wanna go 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 a 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 Well 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
