Log Cabin in the Lane

1 4 1
Well I’m gettin’ old and feeble and I cannot work no more
5
I cannot stand the sunshine or the rain
4 1
And and my papa and my mama they are sleeping side-by- side
5 1
Near the little old log cabin in the lane

4 1
Weel the chimney’s fallen down the roof is all caved-in
5
Letting in the sunshine and the rain
1 4 1
And the only friend I have left is that good old dog of mine
5 1
And the little old log cabin in the lane

Well the paths have all growed up that led around the hill
The fences have all gone to decay
And the creeks have all dried up where we used to go to millh
And things have changed their course along the way

Well I ain’t got long to stay here what little time I got left
I wanna rest content while I remain
Until death shall call this dog and me to find a better home
Than the little old log cabin in the lane
