[Verse 1]
Mother left this world of sorrow
Our home, so silent and so sad
Dad took sick and had to leave us
I have no home, no mother nor dad

[Chorus]
There's a little lonesome graveyard
On these tombstones there they say
On mother’s, "Gone but not forgotten"
On dad's, "We'll meet again someday"

[Verse 2]
I’d often go out to the graveyard
Where they laid them down to rest
I can almost hear them whisper
"Trust in God, He'll do the rest"

[Chorus]
There's a little lonesome graveyard
On these tombstones there they say
On mother's, "Gone but not forgotten"
On dad's, "We'll meet again someday"

[Verse 3]
Their souls have gone up to Heaven
Where they'll live with God above
There they'll meet with friends and loved ones
And share with all His precious love
[Chorus]
There’s a little lonesome graveyard
On these tombstones there they say
On mother’s, "Gone but not forgotten"
On dad's, "We’ll meet again someday"
