Oh, bury me not
On the lone prairie
Where the coyotes howl and the wind blows free
And when I die, don't bury me
'neath western sky
On the lone praire

"oh! bury me not
On the lone prairie! "
This words came soft and painfully
From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
On his dying bed
At the break of day

But we buried him there
On the lone prairie
Where the rattlesnakes is and wind blows free
In a shallow grave, no one to grieve
'neath the western sky
On the lone praire

"oh! bury me not
On the lone praire. "
This words came soft and painfully
From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
On his dying bed
At the break of day

On his dying bed
At the break of day
