about

Trad, arr Elle Osborne

lyrics

My coffin shall be black
Four little angels at my back
Two to watch and two to pray
And two to carry my soul away

Ding dong the parson's bell
Very well my brother
I shall be buried in the old churchyard
Along with my dear mother

When I am dead and in my grave
And all my bones are rotten
Jesus Christ will come again
When I am quite forgotten
