Peter, Paul and Mary - And When I Die lyrics

Your rating:

And when I die and when I'm dead, dead and gone
There'll be one child born and a world to carry on
There'll be one child born to carry on

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, when dying time is here
Just bundle up my coffin, 'cause it's cold way down there

And when I die and when I'm dead, dead and gone
There'll be one child born and a world to carry on
There'll be one child born to carry on

My 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, pray there ain't no hell
But I'll never know by living, only my dying will tell
Only my dying will tell

And when I die and when I'm dead, dead and gone
There'll be one child born and a world to carry on
There'll be one child born 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 I of living is to have no chains on me
And all I ask of dying is to go naturally
I only wanna go naturally

And when I die and when I'm gone
There'll be one child born and a world to carry on
There'll be one child born to carry on
Coming as I go, and a world to carry on
There'll be one child born to carry on.
