Mother's Only Sleeping Lyrics - The Stanley Brothers

Mothers 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'er as the grave sinks away 

 

Well I left my old home way back in the mountains 

For mother and father had both passed away 

We followed our mother up to the graveyard 

For mother was called to heaven that day 

 

Oh how we miss her around the old home place 

Everything seems so lonesome since she went away 

Mother is sleeping way back the mountains 

Yes mother is sleeping way back in the hills
