I was standin' by the window on one cold and cloudy day When I saw that hearse come rolling for to carry my mother away Will the circle be unbroken by and by Lord by and by There's a better home awaitin' in the sky Lord in the sky [ organ ] Lord I told thar undertaker undertaker please drive slow For this body you are haulin' Lord I hate to see her go Will the circle be unbroken... [ organ ] I will follow close behind her try 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...
