Lyrics for Song: Can the Circle Be Unbroken
Lyrics for Album: The Kitty Wells Show [1966]
(A.P. Carter)
Johnny Wright
I was standing by my window
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away.
Can 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 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
By and by Lord, by and by
There's a better home awaiting
In the sky Lord, in the sky.
--- Instrumental ---
Oh, I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in her grave.
Can the circle be unbroken
By and by Lord, by and by
There's a better home awaiting
In the sky Lord, in the sky...
