Oh the rain is slowly fallin',
And my heart is so sore.
Six more miles and I leave my darlin',
Never on this earth to meet no more.
Six more miles to the graveyard,
Six more miles, long and sad.
Six more miles and I leave my darlin',
Leave the best friend I ever had.
INSTRUMENTAL
Oh I hear the train a-comin',
Bringing my darlin' back home.
Six more miles to the graveyard,
And I'll be left here all alone.
Six more miles to the graveyard,
Six more miles, long and sad.
Six more miles and I leave my darlin',
Leave the best friend I ever had.
INSTRUMENTAL
Six more miles to the graveyard,
Six more miles, long and sad.
Six more miles and I leave my darlin',
Leave the best friend I ever had.
