There's A Little Rosewood Casket Resting On A Marble Stand
With A Packet Of Old Love Letters Written By My True Love's Hand
Go And Bring Them To Me Sister Read Them O'er For Me Tonight
I Have Often Tried But Could Not For The Tears That Filled My Eyes
When I'm Dead And In My Casket When I Gently Fall Asleep
Fall Asleep To Wake In Heaven Dearest Sister Do Not Weep
[ Mandolin ]
Take His Letters And His Locket Place Them Gently On My Heart
But This Golden Ring That He Gave Me From My Finger Never Part
There's A Little Rosewood Casket Resting On A Marble Stand
With A Packet Of Old Love Letters Written By My True Love's Hand
[ Ac.guitar - Mandolin ]
