If I Died

Details

Description

if i died
and i was dead
there’d be no need
to fix my head
there’d be no need
to go to work
renew the tags
or wear a shirt
i wouldn’t need
nuthin to do
if it were me
coulda been you
do do do
do do do
do do do do
dead

if i died
and it were aught
i’d grow a tree
and that would rot
and that would bloom
sure enuff
it’s part of things
it’s part of stuff
to everything
you’ve got to turn
you don’t deserve
the things you earn
do do do
do do do
do do do do
dead

when ya die
they don’t know
if there’s a place
you got to go
but hopefully
there’s no chores
jus john prine
celestial doors
and good friends
and fun times
like the ones
that fill up my mind
do do do
do do do
do do do do
dead
