Farther Along Lyrics - Bill Monroe

Farther along we'll know more about it 

Farther along we'll understand why 

Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine 

We'll understand it all by and by 

Tempted and tried will oft make you 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 found and taken our loved ones 

Leaving our home so lonely and dreary 

Then do we wonder why others prosper 

Living so wicked year after year
