Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A short life of trouble, a few more days apart
A short life of trouble, dear girl
For a boy with a broken heart
[Verse 2]
Remember what you promised
Though it's been sometime ago
You promised you would marry me
Standing at your mama's door
[Verse 3]
A short life of trouble, a few more days apart
A short life of trouble, dear girl
For a boy with a broken heart
[Verse 4]
I hear the train a-coming
She's going by the station door
I'd rather be dead and in my grave than to see my darling go
[Verse 5]
A short life of trouble, a few more days apart
A short life of trouble, dear girl
For a boy with a broken heart
[Verse 6]
I see my coffin coming
The crowd is standing round
Oh, take me to some lonesome graveyard
And let the grave be my home
[Verse 7]
A short life of trouble, a few more days apart
A short life of trouble, dear girl
For a boy with a broken heart
[Verse 8]
A short life of trouble, a few more days apart
A short life of trouble, dear girl
For a boy with a broken heart
