'Neath a Cold Gray Tomb of Stone

Hank Williams Sr. · Turn Back the Years: The Essential Hank Williams C [2005]

(Hank Williams - Mel Foree)



Passing by a lonesome graveyard

Everything I love is gone

Weeping as they lay my darling

'Neath a cold gray tomb of stone.



In this world I'm left to wander

With no one to call my own

While my precious darling's sleeping

'Neath a cold gray tomb of stone.



Out there in that lonesome graveyard

She is sleeping all alone

And I buried my heart with her

'Neath a cold gray tomb of stone.



Skies above are dark and stormy

All the sunshine, all is gone

For the while my love is sleeping

'Neath a cold gray tomb of stone.



My heart is dead and yet i'm living

Traveling through this world alone

I wish that I was with my darling

'Neath a cold gray tomb of stone...
