lyrics

[v1]
In the lovely month of may,
eighteen hundred ninety eight
There was a wooden coffin made,
by the Busee Brothers paid

[ch]
Got a permit in my hand
to bury an unknown man

[v2]
At the county cemetery,
I got work cut out for me
Dig a hole in the ground,
and lay the "pauper" down

[v3]
On the hill a simple cross,
for a man I never knew
With a name that got lost,
not leaving any clue

[v4]
No tears to be shed,
no lesson to be learned
No words to be said,
only money to be earned
