Last Words (excerpt) 🎵
By Henry Russell
Lyrics by Diana Jones
See Video
Still alive, but the air is getting bad
Oh, how I love you, Mary
I have made my peace with God
Oh, how I love you, Mary
You did not ask why I go down in the mine
Oh, how I love you, Mary
It was for the children, it was for better times
Oh, how I love you, Mary
Stay in America and give the kids a home
Oh, how I love you, Mary
Marry another, you should not be alone
Oh, how I love you, Mary
We are weakening, our hearts are beating fast
Oh, how I love you, Mary
We think about our families and we do not feel bad
Oh, how I love you, Mary
They will lay me in a pauper's grave
Oh, how I love you, Mary
Tell my father my soul is saved
Oh, how I love you, Mary
Meet me in heaven, I'll wait for you there
Oh, how I love you, Mary
Oh, how I love you, Mary
Oh, how I love you, Mary
Oh, how I love you, Mary
