(originally by Johnny Cash)
I remember when I was a lad
Times were hard and things were bad
But there’s a silver lining behind every cloud
Just four people that’s all we were
Trying to make a living cutting grass and earth
And be together in a family circle singing loud
Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singing seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won’t be long
We’ll be together around God’s throne
We’ll be together in the family circle singing proud
Oh, no. The circle won’t be broken
By-and-by, Lord, by-and-by
Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
I remember now after work nanny would call in all of us
Well, you could hear us singing for a country mile
It’s true [?] has done gone on
But I’ll rejoin him in a song
We’ll be together again up yonder in a little while
Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singing seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won’t be long
We’ll be together around God’s throne
We’ll be together up yonder in a little while
Oh, no. The circle. It won’t be broken
By-and-by, Lord, by-and-by
Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singing seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won’t be long
We’ll be together around God’s throne
We’ll be together in the family circle singing proud
Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
