Song: | BURY ME NOT ON THE LONE PRAIRIE
(THE DYING COWBOY) Hey Y�all its Tin Min giving you Folk�s Some old style traditional Country The sort of songs we play on the Cattle drive trail and campfires!! So sit close to that fire and after a good chew Take out our Mississippi tin sandwich and sit a spell! 4 4 4 5 -5 -6b -5 5 4 5 Oh, bu-ry me not on the lone prair-ie 4 4 5 -4 5 4 4 4 These words came low and mourn-ful-ly 4 4 4 5 -5 From the pal-lid lips -6b -5 5 4 4 Of a youth who lay 4 4 4 5 -4 5 -4 4 -3 4 On his dy-ing bed at the close of day All remaining verses play as first VERSE 2 Oh bury me not on the lone prairie Where the Kiyotes howl and the wind blows free In a narrow grave just six by three Oh bury me not on the lone prairie VERSE 3 Oh bury me not and his voice failed there But we took no heed of his dying prayer In a narrow grave just six by three We buried him there on the lone prairie VERSE 4 Yes we buried him there on the lone prairie Where the owl all night hoots mournfully And the blizzard beats and the wind blows free O�er his lonely grave on the lone prairie |
