Die Laughing
Help me wash my hands of this gnawing fear of death
Purify my dirty soul and ease my ragged breath
Every day is like a hurricane and I'm barely holding on
Sometimes it feels like counting down til the moment I am gone
When I die, oh Lord, let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die singing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die dancing
When I die, oh Lord, you gotta tell me that you'll
Let me die laughing, Lord, now
Let me die laughing
Trouble in heart, trouble in mind that I just can't ignore
Tell me that you'll let me in if I can find a door
And if a door for my poor spirit can't be found
Then give me wings to fly to that land where I am bound
When I die, oh Lord, let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die singing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die dancing
When I die, oh Lord, you gotta tell me that you'll
Let me die laughing, Lord, now
Let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die singing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die dancing
When I die, oh Lord, you gotta tell me that you'll
Let me die laughing, Lord, now
Let me die laughing
Give me that old time religion, give me Buddha 'neath his tree
Give me Peter, Paul, and Mary Christ on Calvary
And now I lay me down to sleep and now I close my eyes
But if I do not wake again be with me when I die.
Purify my dirty soul and ease my ragged breath
Every day is like a hurricane and I'm barely holding on
Sometimes it feels like counting down til the moment I am gone
When I die, oh Lord, let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die singing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die dancing
When I die, oh Lord, you gotta tell me that you'll
Let me die laughing, Lord, now
Let me die laughing
Trouble in heart, trouble in mind that I just can't ignore
Tell me that you'll let me in if I can find a door
And if a door for my poor spirit can't be found
Then give me wings to fly to that land where I am bound
When I die, oh Lord, let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die singing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die dancing
When I die, oh Lord, you gotta tell me that you'll
Let me die laughing, Lord, now
Let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die laughing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die singing
When I die, oh Lord, let me die dancing
When I die, oh Lord, you gotta tell me that you'll
Let me die laughing, Lord, now
Let me die laughing
Give me that old time religion, give me Buddha 'neath his tree
Give me Peter, Paul, and Mary Christ on Calvary
And now I lay me down to sleep and now I close my eyes
But if I do not wake again be with me when I die.
