Will You Miss Me?
When death shall close my eyes
And my heart shall cease to beat
When they lay me down to rest, oh Lord
For a much needed sleep
Will you miss when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone, Lord, Lord
Well, I've been on the Earth too long
Perhaps you'll plant a flower
On my poor unworthy grave
Come and sit down beside me
These words my stone will say
Will you miss when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone, Lord, Lord
Well, I've been on the Earth too long
When my time on Earth is over
And the breath leaves my empty lungs
I'll think about my story
And reflect on what I've done
Will you miss when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone, Lord, Lord
Well, I've been on the Earth too long
And my heart shall cease to beat
When they lay me down to rest, oh Lord
For a much needed sleep
Will you miss when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone, Lord, Lord
Well, I've been on the Earth too long
Perhaps you'll plant a flower
On my poor unworthy grave
Come and sit down beside me
These words my stone will say
Will you miss when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone, Lord, Lord
Well, I've been on the Earth too long
When my time on Earth is over
And the breath leaves my empty lungs
I'll think about my story
And reflect on what I've done
Will you miss when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone
Will you miss me when I'm gone, Lord, Lord
Well, I've been on the Earth too long
