Tombstone Love
I've never seen a girl so fair,
Her beauty can't compare.
And on her bosom hung from chain,
A glimpse of her I share.
Pink satin dress adorned her form,
With lace and sequins born.
Atop her head a feathered hat
So gracefully was worn.
Twas when I asked who this girl was,
That stole my heart from me.
The biggest shock I ever got
From a lady not to be.
Tis but my gran of ninety years,
A spinster's life had she.
And on her tombstone she has writ
Will some one marry me?
Her beauty can't compare.
And on her bosom hung from chain,
A glimpse of her I share.
Pink satin dress adorned her form,
With lace and sequins born.
Atop her head a feathered hat
So gracefully was worn.
Twas when I asked who this girl was,
That stole my heart from me.
The biggest shock I ever got
From a lady not to be.
Tis but my gran of ninety years,
A spinster's life had she.
And on her tombstone she has writ
Will some one marry me?
