Lonely Mound Of Clay lyrics

Beside a new made grave heartbroken my love for her won't let me go away And leave her there to sleep forever all alone beneath that lonely mound of clay Oh Lord why did you take her from me why didn't you take me away So I could have been there beside her all alone beneath that lonely mound of clay Many times I've looked toward heaven and pray she wouldn't be taken away But this sinner's prayer is never answered so she's sleeping now beneath the clay [ dobro ] I stay here beside you little darling and I promise that I'll never go away Until my life down here is over then I'll be with you beneath the clay Oh Lord why did you take her...
