Oh, will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home awaiting In the sky, Lord, in the sky. Hey, Undertaker, hey, Undertaker Undertaker, please drive slow For that body you are holding Lord, I hate, I hate to see her go. Oh, will 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 went back home My home was lonesome Missed my mother, she was gone All my brothers, sister crying In our home so sad and alone. Will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home awaiting In the sky, Lord, in the sky. Well, 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. Oh, will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home awaiting In the sky, Lord, in the sky. Oh, will the circle be unbroken By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home awaiting In the sky, Lord, in the sky. In the sky, Lord, in the sky...
