Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by?
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
I was standing by my window
On a cold, cold cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
Come to carry my mother away
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by?
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Undertaker, undertaker, undertaker
Won't you please, please drive slow?
'Cause the body that you're carrying
Lord, I hate to see her go
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
In the sky, Lord, in the, in the sky
