Daddy Sang Bass

(앨범: Sunday Morning With Nat Stuckey And Connie Smith - 1970)

I remember when I was a lad times were hard and things were bad
But there's a silver lining behind every cloud
Just poor people that's all we were trying to make a living out of black land dirt
We'd get together in a family circle singing loud

And daddy sings bass, mama sings tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Cause singing seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long we'll rejoin them in a song
We'll join the family circle at the throne
No the circle won't be broken by and by Lord by and by
When daddy sings bass mama sings tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Well, I remember after work mama would call in all of us
And you could hear us singing for a country mile
Though little brother has done gone on we'll rejoin him in a song
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while

And daddy sings bass, mama sings tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Cause singing seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long we'll rejoin them in a song
We'll join the family circle at the throne
No the circle won't be broken by and by Lord by and by
When daddy sings bass mama sings tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
