And When I Die, by Laura Nyro

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 and if dying time is here,

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

I hear that 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

In this world to carry on,

To carry on

Now, 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 I pray there ain't no hell

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

Yes, 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

In this 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

Oh, I want to go naturally

Here I go

Hey hey!

Here comes the devil

Right behind

Look out, children

Here he comes!

Here he comes! Hey

Don't want to go by the devil

Don't want to go by 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 dead, dead and gone,

There'll be one child born

In our world to carry on,

To carry on

Yeah yeah
