When I die
Just bundle up my coffin 'cause it's cold way down there
When I die
There'll be one child born
And when I die and when I'm gone
There'll be one child born
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
There'll be one child born
When I die
I hear that's it's cold way down there, yeah, crazy cold way down there
I'm not scared of dying and I don't really care
There'll be one child born, there'll be one child born
Just let me go naturally
My troubles are many, they're as deep as a well
And when I die and when I'm gone
Only my dying will tell, yeah, only my dying will tell
If it's peace you find in dying, well, then let the time be near
All I ask of living is to have no chains on me
There'll be one child born
And all I ask of dying is to go naturally, only want to go naturally
I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell
When I die
Swear there ain't no heaven and pray there ain't no hell
If it's peace you find in dying, when dying time is here
And when I die and when I'm gone
When I die
Don't want to go by Satan, don't want to die uneasy
But I'll never know by living, only my dying will tell
Don't want to go by the devil, don't want to go by the demon
There'll be one child born and a world to carry on, to carry on
