Memories of Mother and Dad
Mother left this world of sorrowOur home was silent and so sadDad took sick and had to leave usI have no home No mother nor dadThere's a little lonesome grave yardOn these tombstones it did sayOn mother's "gone but not forgotten"On dad's "we'll meet again someday"I often go out to the graveyardWhere they laided them down to restI can almost hear them whisperTrust in god He'll do the restTheir souls have gone up to heavenWhere they'll dwell with god aboveWhere they'll meet there friends and loved onesAnd share with all his precious love
