Subject: Lyr Add: I Got to Lay in Yonder Graveyard From: Q (Frank Staplin) Date: 23 Nov 13 - 08:18 PM Lyr. Add: I GOT TO LAY IN YONDER GRAVEYARD Spiritual I got to lay in yonder graveyard I got to lay there fo' myself Nobody here can lay there for me I got to lay there fo' myself. I got to stand my trial in the Judgement I got to stan' there fo' myself There's nobody here can stan' there fo' me I got to stan' there fo' myself. I got to give an account in the Judgement I got to give it fo' myself Nobody here can give it fo' me I got to give it fo' myself. I got to cross that river o' Jurden I got to cross there fo' myself Nobody here goin' to cross there fo' me I got to cross there fo' myself. I got to pray in that lonesome valley I got to pray there fo' myself Nobody here goin' to pray there fo' me I got to pray there fo' myself. I got to weep at Zion's Court House I got to weep there fo' myself My dear mother can't weep there fo' me I got to weep there fo' myself. No music available.
