My Old Cottage Home, recorded by the Carters in 1931, is based on a song by R.A. Glen circa 1880.

MY OLD COTTAGE HOME
Carter Family- Original

I am thinking tonight of an old cottage home
That stands on the brow of the hill
Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
But now all is quiet and still

    Oh, my old cottage home, my old cottage home
    That stands on the brow of the hill
    Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
    But now all is quiet and still
      [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

Many years have gone by since in prayers there I knelt
With dear ones around the old hearth
But my mother's sweet prayers in my heart still are felt
I'll treasure them all while on earth

    Oh, my old cottage home, my old cottage home
    That stands on the brow of the hill
    Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
    But now all is quiet and still
      [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]

One by one they have gone from the old cottage home
On earth we shall see them no more
But we'll meet them again on that beautiful shore
Where parting will come nevermore

    Oh, my old cottage home, my old cottage home
    That stands on the brow of the hill
    Where in life's early morning I once loved to roam
    But now all is quiet and still
