Bury Me Not Video (MV)

O bury me not on the lone prairie
These words came soft and painfully
From the pallid lips of the youth who lay
On his dying bed at the end of day

O bury me not on the lone prairie
Where coyotes howl and the wind blows free
Oh when I die don't bury me
Beneath the western sky on a lone prairie

It matters not, I've been told
Where the body lies when the heart grows cold
Yet grant, o grant, this wish to me
O bury me not on the lone prairie

But we buried him there on the lone prairie
Where the rattlesnakes hiss and the wind blows free
In a narrow grave, just six by three
We buried him there on the lone prairie

And the cowboys now as they roam the plain
For they marked the spot where his bones were lain
Fling a handful of roses over his grave
With a prayer to God his soul to save
