Will The Circle Be Unbroken - Original |
I was standing by the window |
On one cold and cloudy day |
When I saw the hearse come rolling |
For to take my Mother away |
Oh, will the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
Hey, Undertaker, hey, Undertaker |
Undertaker, please drive slow |
For that body you are holding |
Lord, I hate, I hate to see her go |
Oh, will 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 went back home |
My home was lonesome |
Missed my mother, she was gone |
All my brothers, sister crying |
In our home so sad and alone |
Will the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
Well, 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 |
Oh, will the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
Oh, will the circle be unbroken |
By and by, Lord, by and by |
There’s a better home awaiting |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
