Lyrics

0:25Cyrus Jones 1810 to 1913
0:30Made his great granchildren believe
0:33You could live to a hundred and three
0:36A hundred and three is forever
0:38When you're just a little kid
0:41So Cyrus Jones lived forever
0:46Gravedigger
0:49When you dig my grave
0:51Could you make it shallow
0:54So that I can feel the rain
1:00Gravedigger
1:07Muriel Stonewall
1:091903 to 1954
1:12Lost both of her babies
1:14In the second great war
1:17Now you should never have to watch
1:19Your only children lowered in the ground
1:23You should never have
1:24To bury your own babies
1:28Gravedigger
1:30When you dig my grave
1:33Could you make it shallow
1:36So that I can feel the rain
1:42Gravedigger
1:48Ring around the rosey
1:54Pocket full of posey
1:59Ashes to ashes
2:07We all fall down
2:11Gravedigger
2:13When you dig my grave
2:16Could you make it shallow
2:19So that I can feel the rain
2:24Gravedigger
2:31Little Mikey Carson 67 to 75
2:36He rode his
2:36Bike like the devil until the day he died
2:40When he grows up he wants to be Mr Vertigo
2:44On the flying trapeze
2:46Ohhh 1940 to 1992
2:52Gravedigger
2:54When you dig my grave
2:57Could you make it shallow
3:00So that I can feel the rain
3:05Gravedigger
3:07When you dig my grave
3:10Could you make it shallow
3:13So that I can feel the rain
3:16I can feel the rain
3:19Gravedigger
3:21When you dig my grave
3:24Could you make it shallow
3:28So that I can feel the rain
3:33Gravedigger
3:42Gravedigger
Cyrus Jones 1810 to 1913
Made his great granchildren believe
You could live to a hundred and three
A hundred and three is forever
When you're just a little kid
So Cyrus Jones lived forever
Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger
Muriel Stonewall
1903 to 1954
Lost both of her babies
In the second great war
Now you should never have to watch
Your only children lowered in the ground
You should never have
To bury your own babies
Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger
Ring around the rosey
Pocket full of posey
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger
Little Mikey Carson 67 to 75
He rode his
Bike like the devil until the day he died
When he grows up he wants to be Mr Vertigo
On the flying trapeze
Ohhh  1940 to 1992
Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
I can feel the rain
Gravedigger
When you dig my grave
Could you make it shallow
So that I can feel the rain
Gravedigger
Gravedigger
