[Verse 1]
Mornful wind passing southbound
Breaks through the dark but not so still
Big wheels roll on down the valley
That lonesome sound makes my blood chill

[Chorus]
Now the sad wind sighs in the lonesome graveyard
The cold rain falls and the trees bow down
I can hear my darlin softly callin
But she's asleep in the cold cold ground

[Verse 2]
When I die and the angels beckon
Put me on that train for one last ride
Bury me close to my darlin'
So i can be close by her side

[Chorus]
