here you go...i hope this doesn't come out in one big smoosh.

And When I Die

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

Just bundle up my coffin

'Cause its cold way down there

And when I die

And when I'm gone

There'll be one child born

And a world to carry on

My troubles are many

They're deep as a well

I swear there ain't no heaven

And I pray there ain't no hell

But I'll never know by livin'

Only my dyin' will tell

And when I die

And when I'm gone

There'll be one child born

And a world 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

And when I die

And when I'm gone

There'll be one child born

And a world to carry on

hi Judy. great song isn't it?

i printed out the lyrics from a Laura Nyro webpage and a Blood Sweat & Tears webpage. they weren't the same. but between them and listening to the song on the philly bootleg over and over (did you all know that it's physically impossible to sit still through that song?) i think i came up with something reasonably close.

And When I Die

i'm not scared of dyin'
and i don't really care
if it's peace you want from dyin'
well then the time is near
if it's peace you want from dyin'
when the dyin' time is here
then bundle up my coffin
cause it's cold down there
yeah, it's cold down there
yeah, it's crazy cold down there

and when i die
and when i'm gone
there'll be one child born
and a world to carry on
to carry on

my troubles are many
they're as deep as a well
i swear there ain't no heaven
and i pray there ain't no hell
i swear there ain't no heaven
and i pray there ain't no hell
but i'll never know by livin'
only my dyin' will tell
only my dyin' will tell
yeah
only my dyin' will tell

and when i die
and when i'm gone
there'll be one child born
and a world to carry on
to carry on

don't wanna go by the devil
don't wanna go by demon
don't wanna go by satan
don't wanna die uneasy

don't wanna go by the devil
don't wanna go by demon
don't wanna go by satan
don't wanna die uneasy

and when i die
and when i'm gone
there'll be one child born
and a world to carry on
to carry on
to carry on

don't wanna go by the devil
don't wanna go by demon
don't wanna go by satan
don't wanna die uneasy

don't wanna go by the devil
don't wanna go by demon
don't wanna go by satan
don't wanna die uneasy

and when i die

give me my freedom
give me my freedom
give me my freedom
give me my freedom
