Will the Circle Be Unbroken

I was standing by the window
On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling
'For carry my mother away.

Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye Lord bye and bye
There's a better home a waiting
In the sky Lord in the sky.

Lord I told that undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this body you are haulin'
Lord I hate to see her go.

Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye Lord bye and bye
There's a better home a waiting
In the sky Lord in the sky.

Well I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in that grave.

Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye Lord bye and bye
There's a better home a waiting
In the sky Lord in the sky.

I went back home Lord my home was lonesome
Since my mother, she was gone
All my brothers and sisters crying
What a home so sad and alone.

Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye Lord bye and bye
There's a better home a waiting
In the sky Lord in the sky.
In the sky.
