      Lyrics

      There’s something happening here
      What it is ain’t exactly clear
      There’s a man with a gun over there
      Telling me I got to beware
      I think it’s time we stop, children, what’s that sound
      Everybody look what’s going down
      There’s battle lines being drawn
      Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong
      Young people speaking their minds
      Getting so much resistance from behind
      It’s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
      Everybody look what’s going down
      What a field-day for the heat
      A thousand people in the street
      Singing songs and carrying signs
      Mostly say, hooray for our side
      It’s s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
      Everybody look what’s going down
      Paranoia strikes deep
      Into your life it will creep
      It starts when you’re always afraid
      You step out of line, the man come and take you away
      We better stop, hey, what’s that sound
      Everybody look what’s going down
      Stop, hey, what’s that sound
      Everybody look what’s going down
      Stop, now, what’s that sound
      Everybody look what’s going down
      Stop, children, what’s that sound
      Everybody look what’s going down

      Lyrics

      I was standing by my window
      On a cold and cloudy day
      When I saw the hearse come rollin’
      For to take my mother away
      Will the circle be unbroken?
      By and by Lord, by and by
      There’s a better home a-waitin’
      In the sky Lord, in the sky
      I told the undertaker
      “Undertaker, please drive slow
      For this lady that you’re haulin’ Lord
      I hate to see her go.”
      Well I followed close behind
      Tried to hold the family grace
      But I could not hide my sorrow
      When they laid herein the grave
      I went back home, my house was lonesome
      Cause my mother, she was gone
      All my brothers, sisters, crying
      What a home, so sad and lone
      One by one the seats were empty
      One by one they went away
      Now my family, they are parted
      Will they meet again someday
      Will the circle be unbroken?
      By and by Lord, by and by
      There’s a better home a-waitin’
      In the sky Lord, in the sky
