[1] Mothers not dead she's only a [5] sleepin'
Just patiently waiting for Jesus to [1] come
The birds will be singing while mother is [5] sleeping
They will sing o'er as the grave sinks [1] away
Well I left my old home way back in the mountains
For mother and father had both passed away
We followed our mother up to the graveyard
For mother was called to heaven that day
Oh how we miss her 'round the old home place
Everything seems so lonesome since she went away
Mother is sleepin' way back in the mountains
Yes mother is sleepin' way back in the hills
[1] Mothers not dead she's only a [5] sleepin'
Just patiently waiting for Jesus to [1] come
The birds will be singing while mother is [5] sleeping
They will sing o'er as the grave sinks [1] away
Well I left my old home way back in the mountains
For mother and father had both passed away
We followed our mother up to the graveyard
For mother was called to heaven that day
Oh how we miss her 'round the old home place
Everything seems so lonesome since she went away
Mother is sleepin' way back in the mountains
Yes mother is sleepin' way back in the hills
