I was standing by the window
On one cold and cloudy day
And I saw the hearse come rolling
Come to carry my mother away
Can the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better world awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Lord, I told him
“Undertaker, undertaker, please, drive slow
For this body you are haulin’
Lord, I hate to see her go”
Can the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better world awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Oh, I followed right behind her
Tried to hold hеr and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
Whеn they laid my mother in the grave
Can the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better world awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
I went back home
Oh, my home was lonesome
All my bothers, sisters crying
What a home so sad and alone
Can the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There’s a better world awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
