"Sweet By And By" lyrics

Pick a switch, read the bible
Hunt and fish for survival
Plant a seed, watch it grow
Learn to trust which way the wind blows
Let your mama know you love her, you will never have another

Daddy, I have not forgotten lessons learned under the light of a southern, starry sky
Family's the light that guides us, blessed be the ties that bind us
Sweet by and by, sweet by and by

Tell the truth, earn your dollar
Let not your heart asunder
Save yourself, believe in faith
Good things come to those who wait
Let your daddy know you love him, you will never have another

Mama, I have not forgotten lessons learned under the light of a southern, starry sky
Family's the light that guides us, blessed be the ties that bind us
Sweet by and by, sweet by and by

Daddy, I have not forgotten lessons learned under the light of a southern, starry sky
Mama, I have not forgotten lessons learned under the light of a southern, starry sky
Sweet by and by, sweet by and by
