And When I Die Lyrics - Singles - Nyro Laura

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
