Press On

I was standing by the window
 On a cold and cloudy day
 When I saw the hearse come rolling
 To carry my mother away


 Will 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 said to the undertaker
 Undertaker please drive slow
 For this lady you are carrying
 Lord I hate to see her go


 Will 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


 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 a waiting
 In the sky Lord in the sky


 I went back home that home was lonesome
 Since my mother, she was gone
 All my brothers and sisters crying
 What a home so sad and alone
