Laura Nyro And When I Die
I'm not scared of dyin' and I don't really care if it's peace you find in dyin' Well then let the time be near if it's peace you find in dyin' When dyin' time is here just bundle up my coffin cause it's 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 My troubles are many they're as deep as a well I swear there ain't no heaven and 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 livin' only my dyin' will tell And when I die and when I'm gone there'll be one child born and a world to carry on Give me my freedom for as long as I be all I ask of livin' is to have no chains on me all I ask of livin' is to have no chains on me and all I ask of dyin' is to go naturally And when I die and when I'm gone there'll be one child born and a world to carry on
