(A.P. Carter)
I was standing by my window
On a cold and cloudy day
When 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.
--- Instrumental ---
Lord, I told the undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this body you are hauling
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.
--- Instrumental ---
I will follow close behind her
Try 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...
I was standing by my window
On a cold and cloudy day
When 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.
--- Instrumental ---
Lord, I told the undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this body you are hauling
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.
--- Instrumental ---
I will follow close behind her
Try 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...
