Oh, bury me, Lord, on the lone prairie
These words came low and mournfully
From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
On his dying bed there at the close of day
Oh, bury me, Lord, on the lone prairie
Where the wolves can howl and growl o'er me
Place a red, red rose on my lonely grave
With a prayer to him who my soul will save
Oh, bury me, Lord, on the lone prairie
Where the coyotes howl and the wind blows free
And when I die, you can bury me
Neath the western sky, on the lone prairie
On the lone prairie
