the little rosebud casket - ernest thompson lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there’s a little rosebud casket
sitting on the marble stand
there’s a package of love letters
written by my sweetheart’s hand

[verse 2]
go and bring them to me, brother
come and sit beside my bed
lie your head upon my pillow
while my aching heart grows dead

[verse 3]
read them gently all to me, brother
read them till i fall asleep
fall asleep to wake with jesus
dearest brother, do not weep

[verse 4]
last sunday i saw him riding
with a lady by his side
and i thought i heard him tell her
that she soon would be his bride

[verse 5]
i’ve seen him coming up to the pathway
brother, meet him at the door
tell him that i will forgive him
if he’ll court the girl no more
[verse 6]
when i’m dead and in my coffin
and my friends are gathered around
and my narrow grave is ready
in some haunted churchyard ground

[verse 1]
there’s a little rosebud casket
sitting on the marble stand
there’s a package of old letters
written by my true love’s hand
