Daddy sang bass lyrics

Artist  : Johnny cash 
Song : Daddy sang bass
 



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.



Daddy sang bass,

Mama sang tenor.

Me and little brother would join right in
there.

Singing seems to help a troubled soul.

One of these days and it won't be long.

I'll rejoin them in a song.

I'm gonna join the family circle at the
Throne.

No, the circle won't be broken.

By and by, Lord, by and by.



Daddy sang bass,

Mama sang tenor.

Me and little brother would join right in
there.

In the sky, Lord, in the sky.



Now I remember after work,

Mama would call in all of us.

You could hear us singing for a country mile.

Now little brother has done gone on.

But, I'll rejoin him in a song.

We'll be together again up yonder in a little
while.



Daddy sang bass,

Mama sang 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,

I'll rejoin them in a song.

I'm gonna join the family circle at the
Throne.

Oh, no the circle won't be broken.

By and by, Lord, by and by.



Daddy sang bass,

Mama sang tenor.

Me and little brother would join right in
there.

In the sky, Lord, in the sky.

In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
