Dr. John
See That My Grave Is Kept Clean
[Verse 1]
Well, there's one kind favor I'll ask of you
One kind favor I'll ask of you
Oh, there's one kind favor I'll ask of you
See that my grave is kept clean
[Verse 2]
There's two white horses in a line
Two white horses in a line
Two white horses in a line
Gonna take me to my buryin' ground
[Verse 3]
When my heart stopped beatin'
My hands are cold
When my heart stopped beatin'
And my hands are cold
When my heart stopped beatin'
And my hands are cold
I believe just what the Bible told
[Verse 4]
Did you ever hear a coughin' sound?
Did you ever hear a coughin' sound?
Did you ever hear a coughin' sound?
Then you know that the poor boy's in the ground
[Verse 5]
Dig my grave with a silver spade
Well, you dig my grave with a silver spade
Dig my grave with a silver spade
Let me down the golden chain
[Verse 6]
Have you ever heard the church bell toll?
Ever heard the church bell toll?
Did you ever hear a church bell toll?
Then you know that the poor boy's dead and gone
(I feel so good)

[Verse 1]
One kind favor I'll ask of you
One kind favor I'll ask of you
It's one kind favor I'll ask of you
Please see that my grave is kept clean
