Another Year, Another Day
Another year has passed away
I saw the coffin passing by
It seemed like only yesterday
Another year had passed away
So many flowers on the dray
No sooner are we born we die
Another year has passed away
I saw the coffin passing by
Another year, another day
I heard a new born baby cry
And people in the market say
Another year, another day
Another soul come out to play
So many in the graveyard lie
Another year, another day
I heard a new born baby cry
Another year has passed away
I saw the sun rise on the hill
And heard the little children play
Another year, another day
Another hearse gone by. I pray
That you and I will stay until
Another year has passed away
To see the sun rise on the hill
