I was Ebstanding by my window

On one G#cold and cloudy Ebday

when I saw that hearse come rolling

for to carry my Bbmother aEbway

Will the Ebcircle be unEb7broken,

By and G#by, Lord, by and Ebby?

There's a better home a-waiting,

In the sky, Lord, Bbin the Ebsky.

Lord I told that undertaker

undertaker please drive slow

for this body you are hauling

Lord, I hate to see her go

I will follow close behind her

try to hold up and be brave

but I could not hide my sorrow

when they laid her in her grave
