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 as 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.
I went back home, Lord. My home was lonesome. Yes my mother she was
gone.
All my brothers and sisters crying for our home so sad and 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.
