There Ain't Nobody Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone
(MacAuliffe and Taylor)


There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone
There ain't nobody gonna mourn for me too long
Won't you write these words upon my headstone
There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone

Once I had a little sweetheart I loved dearly
We planned the day that she would be my own
And another man he stole my darlin' from me
Now there ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone

There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone
There ain't nobody gonna mourn for me too long
Won't you write these words upon my headstone
There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone

Once I had a lovin' mother dear and daddy
But now they're in the land where angels dwell
They have found eternal rest way up in heaven
Where I'll find my reward no one can tell

There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone
There ain't nobody gonna mourn for me too long
Won't you write these words upon my headstone
There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone

There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone
There ain't nobody gonna mourn for me too long
Won't you write these words upon my headstone
There ain't nobody gonna miss me when I'm gone
