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