LOOK HOW THIS WORLD HAS MADE A CHANGE- Carter Family 1937

We see our friends are weeping with the badges on their door
We see their homes in mourning for the loved ones come no more
You can say just what you please, death rides on every breeze
Look how this world has made a change

    Just look how this world has made a change(made a change)
    Just look how this world has made a change(made a change)
    You can see every day how the people pass away
    Look how this world has made a change
      [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

Our friends are passing over to some far distant shore
We seek them and we call them but they answer us no more
Their throbbing hearts today tomorrow pass away
Look how this world has made a change

    Just look how this world has made a change(made a change)
    Just look how this world has made a change(made a change)
    You can see every day how the people pass away
    Look how this world has made a change
      [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

Dear sinner, o get ready, you must meet your god on high
For death is all around you and it will not pass you by
Death knocks at every door no matter where you go
Look how this world has made a change

    Just look how this world has made a change(made a change)
    Just look how this world has made a change(made a change)
    You can see every day how the people pass away
    Look how this world has made a change
