Osborne Brothers - Lonesome Day lyrics

(Bobby Osborne - Sonny Osborne)

They carried my girl to the burning ground

They carried my girl to the burning ground

They carried my girl to the burning ground

I watched her as they laid her down.

Today has been a lonesome day

Today has been a lonesome day

Today has been a lonesome day

Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way.

--- Instrumental ---

Go dig my grave with the silver spade

Go dig my grave with the silver spade

Go dig my grave with the silver spade

Mark the place where I'll be laid.

Today has been a lonesome day

Today has been a lonesome day

Today has been a lonesome day

Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way.

--- Instrumental ---

Did you ever hear the church bell tone

Did you ever hear the church bell tone

Did you ever hear the church bell tone

You'll know by that I'm dead and gone.

Today has been a lonesome day

Today has been a lonesome day

Today has been a lonesome day

Tomorrow's gonna be the same ol' way...
