March 6, 2006
Trad. Arr. by bingo - Download the MP3 of this song from our 'Products' page!
This song has also been called "One Kind Favor". I learned it from a Staples Singers record that I inherited from my Grampa Victor.
i always liked the song and i especially like the staples' version..
lineup on this one is:
Yascha Noonberg- Drums
Tony Mason - bass
bingo - guitars and vocals
One kind favor I ask of you -
see that my grave is kept clean.
Dig my grave with a silver spade
and lead me down on a golden chain.
Ever heard a church bell toll?
Then you'll know I'm dead and gone.
When you hear that coughing sound
you'll know I'm dead and in the ground.
There's one kind favor I ask of you -
see that my grave is kept clean.
