Lyrics
Verse 1:
A long and winding road up the mountain's crest,
A valley lies beyond, where our souls can rest,
The path we tread is narrow, steep, and worn,
But the road to hell is paved with gold forlorn.
Chorus:
In that sweet bye and by,
We'll wander through the sky,
Where rivers flow, and the meadows grow,
I'll meet my dear old strawberry roan.
Verse 2:
In that sweet bye and by,
No shadows dim the sky,
No war, no pain, no hunger, no strife,
That sacred valley brings peace to our life.
Verse 3:
In that sweet bye and by,
I'll reach the peak and learn to fly,
My soul will part from this weary chest,
And down to the valley, I'll find eternal rest.
Verse 4:
In that sweet bye and by,
We'll find our peace, no need to cry,
Sun's always shining, the skies ever blue,
In that sweet bye and by, our troubles are few.
Verse 5:
In that sweet bye and by,
We'll leave our cares and sorrows behind,
Climb to the top and learn to soar high,
In that sweet bye and by, our dreams touch the sky.
Chorus:
In that sweet bye and by,
We'll wander through the sky,
Where rivers flow, and the meadows grow,
I'll meet my dear old strawberry roan.
Chorus:
In that sweet bye and by,
We'll wander through the sky,
Where rivers flow, and the meadows grow,
I'll meet my dear old strawberry roan.
