Look up look down this lonesome road
Hang down your head and cry
For we often loose some things in life
That makes us wonder why
Oh, the fairest love I ever had
Now sleeps beneath the [?]
I live in hopes and dreams of her
That we'll meet again someday
I often sit and wonder why
Life has to be this way
But after all is said and done
I'm sure god has his say
I'd like to be a small part of life
With some few things to achieve
Just to know what bitter fruitless call
Would give my poor heart grief
Now when they lower my casket down
It's a lonesome grave to rest
And you take one last look at my face
You could say I've done my best
