There's two white horses in a line There's two white horses in a line There's two white horses in a line Gonna carry me to my burying ground My heart stopped beating and my hands got cold My heart stopped beating and my hands got cold My hear stopped beating and my hands got cold It's a long old lane I had to go Did you ever hear the church bell tone? Did you ever hear the church bell tone? Did you ever hear, church bell tone? Then you know that the poor boy's dead and gone
It's a long old lane, ain't got no end It's a long old lane, ain't got no end It's a long old lane, ain't got no end It's a bad old wind don't never change Go dig my grave with a silver spade Go dig my grave with a silver spade Go dig my grave with a silver spade You can lower me down with a golden chain Did you ever hear the coffin sound? Did you ever hear the coffin sound? Did you ever hear, coffin sound? Then you know that the poor boy is in the ground
