People I thought I heard, I thought I heard
Heard them church bell tone
Well, I thought I heard, I heard, thought I heard this morning
Thought I heard the church bell tone
It might be tonin′ for my baby, my baby, she's been mighty low

Way down, way down in shady land
Way down, way down, way down in shady land
There′s two great white horses
They gonna drive my baby away

Well, two, two great white horses, comin' to drive my baby to the buryin' ground
Mm-mm, gonna take her down to a buryin′ ground
I hate to see the two great white horses comin′
That ol' hearse gonna back up to the door

I know I heard, I know I heard, I know I heard a church bell tone this mornin′
Hmm-hmm, I know I heard, heard the church bell tone
I said, "Bye bye, baby, bye bye, baby"
I know we'll never meet again
Mm-mm, we′ll never meet no more
Goodbye, baby, goodbye darling
