1
In a box made of pine lays the sweet love of mine
2
she's been gone for nearly a year
3
The river would overflow
4
if only I could trade a raindrop for every tear
5
It was the year of ought one and our life had begun
6
no perils could make us distraught
7
Together we stood through bad and through good
8
no hardships that couldn't be fought
9
She fell ill one dark winter's night
10
and before too long the passed
11
It would prove to be true my whole life through
12
that nothing good would last
13
It all ended that day when I saw her ride away
14
in the back of that long black hearse
15
I remember so well my personal hell
16
began on this here Earth
17
I've half the heart I used to have and half the will to go on
18
I've got half a mind to drink myself blind
19
now that my darlin' is gone
20
Now the winter's teeth are biting down
21
and it chills me to the bone
22
To think about that cold mattress
23
and sleeping all alone
24
So now I know what I must do
25
the path ahead of me is clear
26
I must join her now wherever she's at
27
'cause I ain't doin' no good here
