(One, two)
|
|
I was standing
|
By the window
|
On a dark and cloudy day
|
When I saw the
|
Hearse come rolling
|
For to take my mother away
|
|
Can the circle be unbroken
|
By and by, Lord, by and by
|
There's a better home awaiting
|
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
|
|
Lord, I told the
|
Undertaker,
|
"Undertaker,
|
Please drive slow
|
For the body you are taking
|
Lord, I hate to see her go"
|
|
Can the circle be unbroken
|
By and by, Lord, by and by
|
There's a better home awaiting
|
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
|
|
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
|
|
Can the circle be unbroken
|
By and by, Lord, by and by
|
There's a better home awaiting
|
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
|
|
Can the circle be unbroken
|
By and by, Lord, by and by
|
There's a better home awaiting...

Can The Circle Be Unbroken
