I was standing by my window,
F C
On a cold and cloudy day.
C
When I saw that hearse come rolling,
C G7 C
For to carry my mother away.
:
C C7
Will the circle be unbroken,
F C
By and by, Lord, by and by?
C
There's a better home a-waiting,
C G7 C
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
C C7
Lord, I told that undertaker,
F C
"Undertaker, please drive slow.
C
For the body you are hauling,
C G7 C
Lord, I hate to see her go."
C C7
Lord, I followed close behind her,
F C
Tried to hold up and be brave.
C
But I could not hide my sorrow,
C G7 C
When they laid her in the grave.
C C7
Went back home, Lord, my home was lonesome,
F C
Since my mother, she was gone.
C
All my brothers, sister cryin',
C G7 C
What a home so sad and lone.
