Will the Circle Be Unbroken Songtext
von Ronnie Hawkins

I was standing by my window
On one cold and rainy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to take my momma away

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

Well, I told the undertaker
"Undertaker, please drive slow
For the that lady you're holding
Lord, I′m gonna hate to see her go"


I followed close behind her
Tried to hold back and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in the grave

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

Yes, I told the undertaker
"Undertaker, please drive slow
For this lady that you're holding
Lord, I′m gonna hate to see her go"

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

Will the circle be unbroken
By and by, by and by
Will the circle
