Sweet Bye and Bye

Thunder broke when he hit that town
He was Brother Stone
Well, I must read to you lovely people
From the book of the bone
Some laughed, some talked
Some just went on their way, he said:
Don't worry about the fallen people
We'll meet again someday in that

Sweet by and by
Sweet by and by
We're gonna be together in the
Sweet by and by

Kind folks, we're here together now
Hear me call
Stop midnight ridin', backbitin'
Tear down the wall
Someday no breath will come and
Look on my friends
Who's there alongside now
Gonna sure be alongside then in that

Sweet by and by
Sweet by and by
We're gonna be together in the
Sweet by and by

Yeah, Brother Stone lived alone
He had no phone, yeah
He was a rambler
Said flowin' mane, crafted cane
The man's insane, yeah
A sometimes gambler
Aw, Brother Stone has been and gone
Still the people are singin' on

Sweet by and by
Sweet by and by
We're gonna be together in the
Sweet by and by

By and by
(Sweet by and by)
By and by
(Sweet by and by)
We're gonna be together in the
Sweet by and by

The by and by, yeah
(Sweet by and by)
The by and by
(Sweet by and by)
We're gonna be together in the
Sweet by and by
