Joan Baez — Will the Circle Be Unbroken lyrics

Lyrics

Will the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
I was standing by the window
On a dark and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling
Oh, to carry my mother away
Will the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Lord, I told the undertaker
Undertaker, please drive slow
For this body you are haulin'
Lord, I hate to see her go
Will the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
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 that grave
Will the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Will the circle be unbroken?
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There’s a better home awaiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
