Graveyard Blues Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wake up to another day
Sun won't shine, sky's full of gray
I've got to go, lace up my shoes
I've got them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
We were wed, was in the spring
Flowers bloomed, the birds did sing
Of life to come, I never knew
That I'd have them low, down, cold, graveyard blues

[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 2]
So fair and kind, she brought me joy
Soon she gave a baby boy
But from our home, fate did remove
And brought them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
With broken hearts, we labored on Day after day, here on this farm
We marked the spot with a stone so smooth
And fought them low, down, cold, graveyard blues

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3]
My darling died of a broken heart
From her child, she could not part
I laid her down, in an earthen tomb
She shed them low, down, cold, graveyard blues

[Outro]
Upon that spot, I often gaze
And place new flowers on their graves
Nothing left on earth to lose
Except them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
I'll lose them low, down, cold, graveyard blues
