📜 Lyrics
I was standing by the window
On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
Will that circle be unbroken?
By and by Lord, by and by
You know there's a better home, home awaiting
Ooh, in the sky Lord, in the sky
Undertaker, oh you undertaker (yes, sir!)
Please drive slow, please drive slow
'Cause you know for that body, that you're carrying
Lord I hate, Lord I hate to see her go
Will the circle be unbroken? (Sing it, sing it y'all)
By and by Lord, by and by
There's a better home awaiting
In the sky Lord, in the sky
Oh, I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and, I tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid 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
I was standing by my window
On a cold and cloudy day (yes, sir!)
When I saw that hearse oh it's rollin', oh baby
For to carry my momma 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
I went back home, the home was lonesome
Missed my mother, 'cause she was gone
All my brothers, sisters cryin'
What a home, so 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
Well we sang, sang the songs of childhood (sang the songs!)
Hymns of faith that made us strong (sang the songs!)
Oh it was that one, oh that my momma Maybelle taught
Hear the angels sing along
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
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
Now that's a choir
Thank you, thank you all
On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
Will that circle be unbroken?
By and by Lord, by and by
You know there's a better home, home awaiting
Ooh, in the sky Lord, in the sky
Undertaker, oh you undertaker (yes, sir!)
Please drive slow, please drive slow
'Cause you know for that body, that you're carrying
Lord I hate, Lord I hate to see her go
Will the circle be unbroken? (Sing it, sing it y'all)
By and by Lord, by and by
There's a better home awaiting
In the sky Lord, in the sky
Oh, I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and, I tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid 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
I was standing by my window
On a cold and cloudy day (yes, sir!)
When I saw that hearse oh it's rollin', oh baby
For to carry my momma 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
I went back home, the home was lonesome
