|
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 near,
|
Just bundle up my coffin
|
'Cause it's cold way down there.
|
I hear that its cold way down there.
|
Yeah, crazy cold way down there.
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
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.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
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, hah!
|
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,
|
When I'm dead, dead and gone,
|
There'll be one child born in our world to carry on,
|
To carry on.
|
Yeah, yeah...
