Testo Walking In A Line

Can you hear the North wind wailin? Wailin? for what lay in store Death has come to take our mother Brought the fever to our door Can you hear the babes a cryin? Cryin? for a piece of bread Our dear mother gives no answer She lay dyin? in her bed Can you hear our daddy prayin? Layin? hands upon her brow Gone and took up with that woman There?s no mercy for him now Can you hear the gospel ringin? Ringin? softly through the pines Death has taken our dear mother We are walking in a line
