Johnny Cash - The caretaker

^AI live in the ^Ecemetery, '^DOld Caretaker' they call ^Ame ^AIn the wintertime I ^Erake the leaves and in the ^Dsummer I cut the ^Aweeds When a ^Dfuneral comes the people ^Acry and pray They ^Ebury their dead then they ^Aall go away And ^Dhere I work and I ^Asomehow hide from a ^Eworld that rushes ^Aby outside But ^Deach night when I ^Arest my head I'm con^Etented as the ^Dpeaceful ^Adead

But ^Awho's going to cry when old John dies? ^EWho's going to cry when ^Dold John ^Adies?

^AOnce I was a y^Eoung man, ^Ddashing with the ^Agirls Now ^Ano one wants an ^Eold man, I ^Dlost my handsome ^Acurls But I ^Dwant to say, when ^Amy time comes ^ELay me facing the ^Arising sun ^DPut me in a corner where I ^Aburied my pup Tell the ^Epreacher to pray then ^Acover me up ^DDon't plant flowers where my ^Ahead should be Maybe ^EGod would let some ^Agrow for me And ^Dall the little children that I ^Alove like my own Will ^Ethey be sorry that ^Dold John's ^Agone?

But ^Awho's going to cry when old John dies? ^EWho's going to cry when ^Dold John ^Adies?
