Pallbearer - Josh Turner, Iris DeMent, Marty Stuart

She left me in the darkness all alone

She abandoned all the good times and the love i thought we had

I’m like a lonesome pallbearer walking down the aisle

Traveling to the graveyard, counting down the miles

With every earth-filled shovel, they dig that eternal bed

I’m like a lonesome pallbearer, carrying the dead

Carrying the dead

She don’t call me and she don’t try to

And my praying can’t bring her back

My eyes are wide open, watching my future fade to black

I’m like a lonesome pallbearer walking down the aisle

Traveling to the graveyard, counting down the miles

With every earth-filled shovel, they dig that eternal bed

I’m like a lonesome pallbearer, carrying the dead

Carrying the dead

I’ve pondered trading places with the man laying in that hearse

I’ve tried to hold my head up but her leaving is like a curse

I’m like a lonesome pallbearer walking down the aisle

Traveling to the graveyard, counting down the miles

With every earth-filled shovel, they dig that eternal bed

I’m like a lonesome pallbearer, carrying the dead

Carrying the dead

Carrying the dead
