After you have gone After you have gone to sleep We will place the stones At your head and at your feet Listen to the railcar Rolling down the track The lonely whistle told me That you ain't coming back ♪ Hear the engine coming Know you're not alone It's come to bring you sister It's come to bring you home Know that when you get there There will be no pain And there will be no worry Left upon your brain ♪ I remember what you told me I remember what you said And when I held your hand You were laying in your bed I will keep it with me Everywhere I go And try to give a little To everyone I know Because you're in every song now You're in everything i do And when I feel I'm sinking I will reach for you ♪ We will dig your grave now Dig it wide and dig it deep And we will tell the children That you have gone to sleep Hear the rails a'singin' Listen to the song Singing we will be together Together before long
