I remember when I was a lad 
Times were hard and things were bad 
But there's a silver linin' behind ev'ry cloud 
Just four people that 's all we were 
Tryin' to make a livin' out of black-land dirt 
But we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud 
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) 
Me and little brother would join right in there 
Singin' seems to help a troubled soul 
One of these days and it won't be long 
I'll rejoin them in a song 
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne 
Though the circle won't be broken 
By and by, Lord, by and by 
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) 
Me and little brother would join right in there 
In the sky, Lord, in the sky 
Now I remember after work mama would call in all of us 
You could hear us singin' for a country mile 
Now little brother has done gone on 
But I'll rejoin him in a song 
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while 
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) 
Me and little brother would join right in there 
'Cause singin' seems to help a troubled soul 
One of these days and it won't be long 
I'll rejoin them in a song 
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne 
Oh no the circle won't be broken 
By and by, Lord, by and by 
Daddy sang bass (mama sang tenor) 
Me and little brother would join right in there 
In the sky, Lord, in the sky 
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
