No pleasures here....... on earth I found
For........ in this world...... I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends.... to help me now.

For.......I'm bound to ride...... that northern railroad
Perhaps I'll die....... upon this train.

For many years...... where I may lay
Then...... you may learn..... to love another
While I am sleeping...... in my grave.

[5] Maybe your friends....... think I'm just a stranger
My face you'll....... never see no more.
But there is one promise..... that is given
I'll meet you on..... God's golden shore.
(He'll meet you on God's golden shore.)
