And when I diiiiiie      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 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 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 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 livin' only my dyin' will tell  Only my dyin' will tell And when I die (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   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 I only wanna go naturally And when I die (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 Comin' as I go and a world to carry on There'll be one child born to carry on
