Intro

Cyrus Jones, 1810 to 1913

Made his great grandchildren believe

 He could live to a hundred and three

A hundred and three is forever when you're just a little

kid

So Cyrus Jones lived forever

Chorus

(Note: played the same as the intro)

 Gravedigger

 When you dig my grave

 Could you make it shallow

 So that I can feel the rain

 Gravedigger

Muriel Stonewall, 1903 to 1954

Lost both of her babies in the second great war

 Now you should never have to watch

 Your only children are lowered in the ground

 You should never have to bury your own babies

 Gravedigger

 When you dig my grave

 Could you make it shallow

 So that I can feel the rain

 Gravedigger

Ring around the rosey

Pocket full of posey

Ashes to ashes

We all fall down

 Gravedigger

 When you dig my grave

 Could you make it shallow

 So that I can feel the rain

 Gravedigger

Little Mikey Carson, '67 to '75

 He rode his

 Bike like the devil until the day he died

 When he grows up he wants to be Mr. Vertigo on the flying

trapeze

 Oh, 1940 to 1992

 Gravedigger

 When you dig my grave

 Could you make it shallow

 So that I can feel the rain

 Gravedigger

 When you dig my grave

 Could you make it shallow

 So that I can feel the rain

 I can Feel the rain

 Gravedigger

 When you dig my grave

 Could you make it shallow

 So that I can feel the rain
