lirik lagu joe hickerson - bury me not on the lone prairie
[verse 1]
“oh, bury me not on the lone prairie”
these words came low and mournfully
from the pallid lips of a youth who lay
on his dying bed at the close of day
[chorus]
“oh, bury me not on the lone prairie
where the wild coyotes will howl o’er me
where the buffalo roams on the prairie sea
oh, bury me not on the lone prairie”
[verse 2]
“it makes no difference, so i’ve been told
where the body lies when life grows cold
but grant, i pray, onе wish to me
oh, bury me not on the lonе prairie”
[verse 3]
“i’ve often wished to be laid when i die
by the little church on the green hillside
by my father’s grave, there let mine be
oh, bury me not on the lone prairie”
[verse 4]
the cowboys gathered all around the bed
to hear the last words that the comrade said
“oh, partners all take a warning from me
never leave your homes for the lone prairie”
[verse 5]
“dont listen to the enticing words
of the men who own large droves and herds
for if you do, you’ll rue the day
that you left your homes for the lone prairie”
[verse 6]
“oh, bury me not,” but his voice fell there
but we paid no heed to his dying prayer
in a narrow grave, just six~by~three
we buried him there on the lone priairie
[chorus 2]
we buried him there on the lone prairie
where the buzzards fly, and the wind blows free
where the rattlesnakes rattle, and the tumbleweeds
blow across his grave on the lone prairie
[verse 7]
and the cowboys now as they cross the plains
have marked the spot where his bones are lain
fling a handful of roses o’er his grave
and pray to the lord that his soul be saved
[outro]
in a narrow grave, just six~by~three
we buried him there on the lone prairie
