Daddy Sang Bass (with connie smith) lyrics

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 tryin' to make a livin' out of black land dirt We'd get together in a family circle singin' loud And daddy sings bass mama sings 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 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 singin' 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... In the sky Lord in the sky
