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, yeah yeah
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
