I remember when I was a lad |
| [00:07.400] |
Times were hard and things were bad |
| [00:10.330] |
But there's a silver lining behind every cloud |
| [00:15.10] |
Just four people that 's all we were |
| [00:17.324] |
Trying to make a living out of black-land dirt |
| [00:19.914] |
But we'd get together in a family circle singing loud |
| [00:24.914] |
Daddy sang bass （mama sang tenor） |
| [00:27.464] |
Me and little brother would join right in there |
| [00:30.516] |
Singing seems to help a troubled soul |
| [00:34.826] |
One of these days and it won't be long |
| [00:37.256] |
I'll rejoin them in a song |
| [00:39.816] |
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne |
| [00:44.616] |
Though the circle won't be broken |
| [00:49.676] |
By and by,Lord,by and by |
| [00:54.606] |
Daddy sang bass （mama sang tenor） |
| [00:57.166] |
Me and little brother would join right in there |
| [00:59.716] |
In the sky,Lord,in the sky |
| [01:09.516] |
Now I remember after work mama would call in all of us |
| [01:14.696] |
You could hear us singing for a country mile |
| [01:19.376] |
Now little brother has done gone on |
| [01:21.876] |
But I'll rejoin him in a song |
| [01:24.385] |
We'll be together again up beyonder in a little while |
| [01:29.351] |
Daddy sang bass （mama sang tenor） |
| [01:31.917] |
Me and little brother would join right in there |
| [01:34.676] |
cause singing seems to help a troubled soul |
| [01:39.296] |
One of these days and it won't be long |
| [01:41.666] |
I'll rejoin them in a song |
| [01:44.209] |
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne |
| [01:48.889] |
Oh no the circle won't be broken |
| [01:54.189] |
By and by,Lord,by and by |
| [01:59.119] |
Daddy sang bass （mama sang tenor） |
| [02:01.809] |
Me and little brother would join right in there |
| [02:04.239] |
In the sky,Lord,in the sky |
| [02:09.169] |
In the sky,Lord,in the sky |
