Bye and Bye |
I was standing by the window |
On a dark and cloudy day |
When I saw the hearse come rolling |
For to carry my mother away |
Can the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
Lord, I told the undertaker, undertaker |
Please drive slow |
For this body you are holding Lord |
Lord, I hate to see her go |
Can the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
I followed close behind her |
Tried to hold up and be brave |
But I could not hide my sorrow |
When they laid her in the grave |
Can the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
Went that home Lord, my home was lonesome |
Yes my mother she was gone |
All my brothers, sisters cryin' |
What a home to sit alone |
Can the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
