Will the Circle Be Unbroken

[Verse 1]
I w's a-standing by my window
It was a cold and cloudy day
When I say a hearse come rollin'
Just to carry my mother away

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Now I said to the undertaker
"Undertaker, please drive slow
For the body you are hauling
Lord, I hate to see her go"

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
I come back home, my home was lonеly
Since my mother she had gonе
All my brothers, sisters crying
What a home, so sad and low

[Chorus]
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
