Mother's Only Sleeping |
| Mothers not dead, she’s only a sleeping |
| Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come |
| The birds will be singing while Mother is sleeping |
| They will sing o’er as the grave sinks away |
| Well I left my old home way back in the mountains |
| For mother and father had both passed away |
| We followed our mother up to the graveyard |
| For mother was called to heaven that day |
| Oh how we miss her around the old home place |
| Everything seems so lonesome since she went away |
| Mother is sleeping way back the mountains |
| Yes mother is sleeping way back in the hills |
