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 her
Just bundle up my coffin 'cause it's cold way down there
I hear that its cold way down their, yeah crazy cold way down their

[Chorus]
And when I die, and when I'm gone
There will 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

[Chorus]

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,
When I'm dead, dead and gone,
There will be one child born in our world
To carry on, to carry on
