Lightnin' Hopkins - Lonesome Graveyard Lyrics

Send "Lonesome Graveyard" ringtone to your cell

Sleep on sleep on sleep on

Little girl sleep on just sleep on

Sleep on sleep on

Little girl just sleep on sleep on

Well I know you're dead and resting darling but one day

I know the graveyard's gonna be my home

(every living people got to die human beings)

Mama was rocking by the window

Howling: my poor child is dead yes she's dead

Yeah you know my poor child is dead and gone

(What made me feel so good she said this:)

Sleep on sleep on son

Do you know your mother is coming on?

Whoa the graveyard ain't too beautiful

But it will give you a home so long.

I wouldn't mind dying

Po' Lightnin' would just have to lay dead so long

Wouldn't mind dying

But I'd have to lay dead so long

That I wouldn't have a chance to come back here and tell my friends

No nobody what is going on.

Told my baby don't worry if I die darling

I know I'm gonna leave your little bed warm

Don't worry if po' Lightnin' lay down and die

'Cause I'm gonna leave your little bed very warm

Whoa you know I can't worry when I'm dead and gone but one thing

Little girl I know you is coming home.
