$100 Funeral
"Hundred Dollar Funeral"

With one nickel in his pocket
and a pack of cigarettes
There were no tears of sorrow
no tears of regret
In a plain wooden casket
they laid him away
Just a hundred dollar funeral
with no one to pray

(CHORUS)
There must be a mother
who loved him somewhere
Perhaps she had gone home
and is waiting up there
Where there's no disappointments
around God's great throne
No hundred dollar funerals
for the unloved and unknown

No pretty marble headstone
not one friend came
He was lowered by four strangers
that didn't know his name
A loner on this Earth,
a death so many must pay
Just a hundred dollar funeral
with no one to pray

(CHORUS- 2x)
No hundred dollar funerals
for the unloved and unknown
