Loudon Wainwright Iii - Graveyard lyrics

I go to the graveyard where we all must go Among the dead and the buried there just so I will know What it's like beneath those trees listening to that wind I go to the graveyard and I'll be back again I played in the graveyard when I was just a boy I'd run among the headstones myself I would enjoy But I was young and hardly knew what would happen then I played in the graveyard and I'll be back again I walk through the graveyard I read the headstones So many dead and buried there, each one all alone An old man and an infant and a little child of ten I walk through the graveyard and I'll be back again My father's in the graveyard, my dear mother too I visit them with flowers what else can I do I go to the graveyard to remember them I'm an orphan in the graveyard & I'll be back again
