Won't You Come Visit My Grave?

lyrics

Won't You Come And Visit My Grave?

I prayed to God for my whole life
I had two sons, daughters and a wife
I fed them, cared for them and bid goodbye
from my deathbed where I died
I was turned into dust
and buried here beneath the crust
I ain't seen my family for days
Won't you please visit my grave?

(chorus)
Why don't you come and visit my grave?
My heart's been laid to rest
my soul's been saved
I'm hoping you will come to me
Thank me for the friend I've been
It's not sad or angry here
I'm just buried and in fear
Only one thing I do crave
Won't you please visit my grave?

My mother Malo is buried by
our souls in heaven weave and fly
there ain't no calling, no pain, no fear
many prayers have sent us here
and below we see our legacies
moving on from memories
just remember what I gave
Won't you please visit my grave?

(chorus)

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
