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

There's a little lonesome graveyard

On these tombstones it did say

On mother "Gone but not forgotten"

On dad "We'll meet again someday"

I'd 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"

There's a little lonesome graveyard

On these tombstones it did say

On mother "Gone but not forgotten"

On dad "We'll meet again someday"

Their souls have gone up to heaven

Where they'll dwell with God above

There they'll meet their friends and loved ones

And share with all His precious love

There's a little lonesome graveyard

On these tombstones it did say

On mother "Gone but not forgotten"

On dad "We'll meet again someday"
