Away out on the old Saint Sabbath Lay down to take my rest My knapsack for my pillow And my gun across my chest Please don't bury me on the lone pa-rairie Please don't bury me on the lone prairie You can bury me in the east, you can bury me in the west Please don't bury me on the lone prairie My father, he lies sleeping Beneath the deep blue sea I have no father, no mother There's none but Nell and me Please don't bury me on the lone pa-rairie Please don't bury me on the lone prairie You can bury me in the east, you can bury me in the west Please don't bury me on the lone prairie My mother she lies sleeping Beneath the churchyard sod Her body lies there moldering And her spirit has gone to God Please don't bury me on the lone pa-rairie Please don't bury me on the lone prairie You can bury me in the east, you can bury me in the west Please don't bury me on the lone prairie
