I see they're lowering right new coffin,
|
I see they're letting down right new coffin,
|
Way over in that Union Burying Ground.
|
And the new dirt's falling on a right new coffin,
|
The new dirt's falling on a right new coffin
|
Way over in that Union Burying Ground.
|
O, tell me who's that they're letting down, down,
|
Tell me who's that they're letting down, down,
|
Way over in that Union Burying Ground.
|
Another union organizer,
|
Another union organizer,
|
Way over in that Union Burying Ground.
|
A union brother and a union sister,
|
A union brother and a union sister,
|
Way over in that Union Burying Ground.
|
A union father and a union mother,
|
A union father and a union mother,
|
Way over in that Union Burying Ground.
|
Well, I'm going to sleep in a union coffin,
|
I'm going to sleep in a union coffin,
|
Way over in that Union Burying round.
|
Every new grave brings a thousand new ones,
|
Every new grave brings a thousand members,
|
Way over in that Union Burying round.
|
Every new grave brings a thousand brothers,
|
Every new grave brings a thousand sisters,
|
Way over in that Union Burying round.
