Lyrics

I was standing by my window

On a cold and cloudy day

When I saw that hearse come rolling

Oh to carry my mother away

So I told the undertaker

Undertaker please drive slow

'Cause that lady that you are haulin'

Oh I hate to see her go

Will the circle be unbroken

Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye

There's a better home there waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

(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)

(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)

So I followed close behind her

Tried to hold up and be brave

But I could not hold my sorrow

When they laid her in the grave

Whoa tell me

Will the circle be unbroken

Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye

There's a better home there waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Will the circle be unbroken

Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye

There's a better home there waiting

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Tell me

Will the circle (will the circle)

Be unbroken (be unbroken)

Oh, bye and bye and bye and bye

There's a better (there's a better)

Home awaiting (home awaiting)

In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Will the circle (will the circle)

Be unbroken (be unbroken)

Bye and bye and bye and bye

Oh there's a better (there's a better)

Home awaiting (home awaiting)

In the sky, Lord, in the sky
