How Far Is It To The Grave Testo

"How far is it to the grave?"
The child looked up from his play
"It must be far away, away
It must be far away"

"How far is it to the grave?"
The lover looked up with a smile
To his own true love, he lied
"It must be a-many, a-many mile
It must be a-many mile" "How far is it to the grave?"
The banker looked up from his ledger
The balance cels a little longer
"I haven't bought the things I long for
I need a little longer
I need a little longer"

"How far is it to the grave?"
The master said to his slavе
"I hope it won't be long", said he
"In lifе, I am dead, in death, I'll be free
I hope it won't be long for me"

How far is it to the end?
It's only a life, dear friend, dear friend
It's only a life, dear friend, dear friend
It's only a life, dear friend
It's only a life, dear friend, dear friend
It's only a life, dear friend
