Lonely Tombs (Oh Those Tombs) [Acetate version 12] (2019 - Remaster) Songtext
von Hank Williams

All the boys, myself and lonely tombs

I was strollin′ one day, in a lonely graveyard
When a voice from the tomb, seemed to say
I once lived as you live, walked and talked as you talk
But from Earth, I was soon called away


Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful heavenly home

Every voice from the tomb, seemed to whisper and say
Livin' man, you must soon follow me
And I thought as I gazed, on those cold marble slab
What a sad lonely place that must be

Oh, those tombs (oh, those tombs)
Lonely tombs (lonely tombs)
Seemed to say in a low gentle tone
Oh, how sweet (oh, how sweet)
Is the rest (is the rest)
In our beautiful heavenly home


Thank you boys, that happens to be one of my favorites too
