The Carter Family can the circle be unbroken bye bye

Select language to translate this lyric

I was standing by the window
On one cold and cloudy day
And I saw the hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away.
Can the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye.
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
Lord, I told the undertaker,
Undertaker, please drive slow
For this body you are hauling
Lord, I hate to see her go.
Can the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye.
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
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.
Can the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye.
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
Went back home, Lord,
My home was lonesome
Since my mother she was gone.
All my brothers, sisters crying,
What a home so sad and lone.
Can the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye.
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
