I was standing by my window on a cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come a rolling oh to take my mother away

Will the circle be unbroken by and by Lord by and by
Well there's a better home awaitin' in the sky Lord in the sky

Well I told that undertaker please undertaker won't you please drive slow
Cause this lady that you are hauling Lord I hate to see her go

Oh will the circle be unbroken...

I will follow close behind her try to hold up and be brave
But I could not hold my sorrow when they laid her in the grave

Oh will the circle be unbroken...
Yeah in the sky Lord in the sky
