I remember when I was a lad, times were hard and things were bad,
A A
But there's a silver linin' behind every cloud.
D D
Just poor people, that's all we were,
G G D D
Tryin' to make a livin' out of blackland earth,
A A D D
But we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud.


D D
Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor,
G G D D
Me and little brother would join right in there,
A A
'cause singin' seems to help a troubled soul.
D D G G D D
One of these days and it won't be long, I'll rejoin them in a song
A A D D
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne.

No, the circle won't be broken, bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye.

D D
Daddy'll sing bass, Mama'll sing tenor,
G G D D
Me and little brother will join right in there,
A A D D
in the sky, Lord, in the sky.


D D G G D D
Now, I remember after work mama would call in all of us,
A A
You could hear us singin' for a country mile.
D D G G D D
Now, little brother has done gone on, but I'll rejoin him in a song,
A A D D
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while.
