[00:00:00] Mother's Only Sleeping - Bill Monroe & His Blue Grass Boys

[00:00:00] Written by：Bill Monroe

[00:00:02] Mother's not dead she's only a sleeping

[00:00:09] Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come

[00:00:17] The birds will be singing while mother is sleeping

[00:00:25] They will sing over as the grave sinks away

[00:00:49] Well I left my old home way back in the mountains

[00:00:57] For mother and father had both passed away

[00:01:05] We followed our mother up to the graveyard

[00:01:13] For mother was called to heaven that day

[00:01:21] Mother's not dead she's only a sleeping

[00:01:29] Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come

[00:01:37] The birds will be singing while mother is sleeping

[00:01:45] They will sing over as the grave sinks away

[00:02:09] Oh how we miss her around the old home place

[00:02:17] Everything seems so lonesome since she went away

[00:02:25] Mother is sleeping way back the mountains

[00:02:33] Yes mother is sleeping way back in the hills

[00:02:41] Mother's not dead she's only a sleeping

[00:02:49] Just patiently waiting for Jesus to come

[00:02:57] The birds will be singing while mother is sleeping

[00:03:05] They will sing over as the grave sinks away
