Will The Circle Be UnbrokenI was standing by my windowOn a cold and cloudy day When I saw he 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 Well, I went back home, home was lonely For my mother she was gone And all my family there was cryin' For our home felt 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 Undertaker, undertaker, undertaker Won't you please drive slow? For that lady 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 There's a better home awaiting In the sky, Lord, in the sky |
