I reMember when I was a Lad
Now I remember after work
           		        
Times were Hard and things were Bad
Momma would call in all of us
*             *             //
But there's a Silver Linin' Behind Every Cloud
You could hear us singin' for a country mile
                               
Just poor People that's all we Were
Now, Little brother has done gone on,
*	                               
Try'n' to make a Livin' outta blackland Dirt
On ...  But I'll    re-Join him in a           Song
                                           	     
We'd get together in a family circle       Singin'   Loud
We'll be together again up yonder in a   Little     While


Daddy sang bass
          
Momma sang Tenor
                                    
Me and little Brother would join right In there
 			         /E7A7
Singin' seems to help a troubled Soul....
           		           
One of these Days and it won't be  Long
      	       
I'll re-Join them in a Song
                                     //
I'm gonna join the family Circle at the Throne...


No the Circle 
  	 
Won't be Broken
	 		   //
Bye and  Bye, lord, bye and Bye

Dadd'll sing bass
           
Mom'll sing Tenor
				       
Me and little brother will join right  In there
                        
In the sky, Lord, In   The  Sky
