Lyrics
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.
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.
Lord I told the undertaker,
"Undertaker, please drive slow,
For this body you are haulin'
Lord, I hate to see her go."
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 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.
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.
Went back home lord - My home was lonesome;
Yes my mother she was gone.
All my brothers, sisters cryin'
What a home so sad and lone.
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.
