| I was standing by the window |
| one dark and cloudy day, |
| when I saw that hearse come rolling |
| for to carry my mother away |
| Chorus |
| Well, I told the undertaker: |
| "Undertaker, please drive slow, |
| for this body that you're hauling, |
| Lord, I hate to see her go !" |
| Chorus |
| Well, I followed close behind her, |
| tried to hold up and be brave. |
| But I could not hide my sorrow |
| when they layed her in the grave. |
| Chorus |
| I went home, my home was lonely |
| Now my mother she has gone |
| All my brothers, sisters crying |
| What a home so sad and alone. |
| Chorus |
