I was standing by my window,
On one cold and cloudy day
When I saw that 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 a-waiting
In the sky, lord, in the sky
I said to that undertaker
Undertaker please drive slow
For this lady you are carrying
Lord, I hate to see her go
BROUGHT TO YOU BY GOD VIA

Beautiful. Just beautiful. Thanks
Darn tootin’!! GREAT! Straight Outta The South.
Nitty Gritty’s Dirt, Silver and Gold is one of the very first albums I ever purchased, back in 1976, while living just outside Philly, PA. I still own it, and will have to throw it on the turntable today. This tune is a classic, covered by a multitude of musicians, but Nitty Gritty’s riff on the tune is the best, in my opinion.
