[00:00.00]Lonely Mound of Clay - Roy Acuff
[00:07.24]Beside a new made grave heartbroken
[00:13.99]My love for her won't let me go away
[00:20.84]And leave her there to sleep forever
[00:27.61]All alone beneath
[00:29.61]That lonely mound of clay
[00:34.42]Oh lord why did you take her from me
[00:41.26]Why didn't you take me away
[00:47.92]So I could have been there beside her
[00:54.84]All alone beneath
[00:56.79]That lonely mound of clay
[01:01.56]Many times I've looked toward heaven
[01:08.32]And prayed that she wouldn't take away
[01:15.34]But this sinner's prayer was never answered
[01:21.94]So now she's sleeping beneath
[01:25.42]That lonely mound of clay
[01:35.78]So I'll stay here beside you little darling
[01:42.52]And I promise that I'll never go away
[01:49.45]Until my life down here is over
[01:56.30]And then be with you
[01:59.54]Be the clay
[02:03.17]Oh lord why did you take her from me
[02:09.82]Why didn't you take me away
[02:16.71]So I could have been there beside her
[02:23.54]All alone beneath
[02:25.62]That lonely mound of clay
