Will the Circle Be Unbroken? Lyrics by Richie Havens

Soundtrack for a Revolution

0

I was standing by my window
On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse comin'
Just to take my mother away

So I told the undertaker
"Undertaker please drive slow
For this body you are hauling
Lord, I hate, I hate to see her go"
