alice gerrard - memories of mother and dad lyrics
[verse 1]
mother left this world of sorrow
our home was silent and so sad
dad took sick and had to leave us
i have no home, no mother, nor dad
[chorus]
there’s a little lonesome graveyard
on these tombstones, did it say
on mother’s: “gone, but not forgotten”
on dad’s: “we’ll meet again someday”
[verse 2]
i often go out to the graveyard
where they laid them down to rest
i can almost hear them whisper
“trust in god, he’ll do the rest”
[chorus]
there’s a little lonesome graveyard
on these tombstones, they did say
on mother’s: “gone, but not forgotten”
on dad’s: “we’ll meet again someday”
[verse 3]
their souls have gone up to heaven
where they’ll dwell with god above
where they’ll meet their friends and loved ones
and share with all his precious love
[chorus]
there’s a little lonesome graveyard
on these tombstones, did it say
on mother’s: “gone, but not forgotten”
on dad’s: “we’ll meet again someday”
