Songtexte Farther Along - Remastered - Dolly Parton feat. Linda Ronstadt & Emmylou Harris

Tempted and tried, we're 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

When death has come, and taken our loved ones
It leaves a home, so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder, why others prosper
Living so wicked, year after year

Farther along, we'll know all about it
Farther along, we'll understand why
Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it, all by and by

Faithful 'til death, said, our loving master
A few more days, to labor and wait
Toils of the road, will then seem, as nothing
As we sweep, through the beautiful gates

Farther along, we'll know all about it
Farther along, we'll understand why
Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all, by and by

Yes, we'll understand it all, by and by
