On one cold and cloudy day
And 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 hauling
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 back home Lord, my home was lonesome
Miss my mother she was gone
All my brothers sisters crying
What a home, so sad and lone
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 was standing by the window On one cold and cloudy day And 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 hauling 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 back home Lord, my home was lonesome Miss my mother she was gone All my brothers sisters crying What a home, so sad and lone 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 Explain Request ×
