[Verse]
There was an old woman all skin and bone
Who lived near the graveyard all alone
She thought she’d go to church one day
To hear the parson preach and pray
[Verse]
And when she can to the church house stile
She thought she’d stop and rest a while
And when she came up to the door
She thought she’d stop and rest some more
[Bridge]
But when she turned and look around
She saw a corpse upon the ground
[Build-up]
From its nose down to its chin
The worms crawled out and the worms crawled in
The woman to the preacher said
“Shall look like that when I’m dead?”
The preacher to the woman said
“We’ll all look like that when we’re dead.”
[Instrumental Break]
