Farther Along / Billy In The Low Ground Lyrics - Adrienne Young

Farther Along / Billy In the Low Ground 

Adrienne Young / Broken Drought 

Tempted and tried were oft made to wonder 

Why it should be thus all the day long 

While there are others living about us 

Never molested though in the wrong 

Farther along 

Well know all about it 

Farther along well understand why 

Cheery up my brother, 

Live in the sunshine 

Well understand it 

All by and by 

When death has come and taken our loved ones 

Leaving a hole so weary and drear 

Then do we wonder why other prosper 

Living so wicked year after year 

Farther along 

Well know all about it 

Farther along well understand why 

Cheery up my brother, 

Live in the sunshine 

Well understand it 

All by and by 

Faithful to listen to our loving master 

Just a few more days to labor and wait 

Toils of the road will then seem as nothing 

As we sweep through those beautiful gates 

Farther along 

Well know all about it 

Farther along well understand why 

Cheery up my brother, 

Live in the sunshine 

Well understand it 

All by and by
