Will the Circle Be Unbroken?

I was standing by my window

On a cold and cloudy day

When I saw the hearse come rolling

For to take 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

Undertaker

Undertaker

Undertaker please drive slow

For that body 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

Oh, I followed close behind her

Tried to hold up and be brave

But I could not hide my sorrow

When they laid her in the grave

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
