- Comments
-
Carter changed the lyrics and revised the tune. It goes:
I was standing by my window - On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling - For to carry my mother away.
Will the circle be unbroken - By and by Lord, by and by
There's a better home awaiting - In the sky Lord, in the sky. - Published by
