And When I Die-Laura Nyro

And when I die and when I'm dead dead and gone

There'll be one child born and a world to carry on to carry on

I'm not scared of dying and I don't really care

If it's peace you find in dying well then let the time be near

If it's peace you find in dying when dying time is here

Just bundle up my coffin cause it's cold way down there

I hear that's it's cold way down there yeah crazy cold way down there

And when I die and when I'm gone

There'll be one child born and a world to carry on to carry on

My troubles are many they're as deep as a well

I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell

Swear there ain't no heaven and pray there ain't no hell

But I'll never know by living only my dying will tell

Only my dying will tell yeah only my dying will tell

And when I die and when I'm gone

There'll be one child born and a world to carry on to carry on

Give me my freedom for as long as I be All I ask of living is to have no chains on me

All I ask of living is to have no chains on me

And all I ask of dying is to go naturally only want to go naturally

Don't want to go by the devil don't want to go by the demon

Don't want to go by Satan don't want to die uneasy just let me go naturally

And when I die and when I'm gone there'll be one child born there'll be one child born

When I die there'll be one child born When I die there'll be one child born

When I die there'll be one child born When I die there'll be one child born
