Six more miles
To the graveyard
Six more miles
Long and sad
Six more miles
To see my darling
She's best friend
I ever had

And the rain
Is softly falling
And my heart
It is so sore
Six more miles
To the graveyard
And I'll be here
Alone once more

And I hear the train a'comin'
Bringing my darlin' on back home
Six more miles
To the graveyard
And I'll be here
Alone once more
