  The Little Rosewood Casket

  Recorded by Hank Thompson

  Traditional

  

  In a little [G7] Rosewood [C] casket

  In the hall up-[G7] on a [C] stand

  There's a package of [F] old love [C] letters

  Written [G7] by a true love's [C] hand.

  

  Won't you go and get them, sister

  Read them o'er to me tonight

  I have tried so hard to read them

  But the tears, they blind my sight.

  

  Place his letters and his picture

  Both together by my heart

  With a little ring he gave me

  >From my finger ne'er shall part.

  

  When I'm dead and in my casket

  And deep in my grave I live

  I want to be there close beside him

  When they lay me down to die.
