"When I'm Dead And Gone" Lyrics

Oh, I love you baby, I love you night and day
When I leave you baby, don't cry the night away
When I die, don't you write no words upon my tomb
I don't believe I want to leave no epitaph of doom

Oh, oh, when I'm dead and gone
I want to leave some happy woman living on
Oh, oh, when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave

Old mama Linda, she's out to get my hide
She's got a shotgun and her daughter by her side
Hey, little ladies, Johnson's free
Who's got the love? Who's got enough to keep a man like me?

Oh, oh, when I'm dead and gone
I want to leave some happy woman living on
Oh, oh, when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave

Oh, oh, when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave
Oh, oh, when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave

Ooh lalala, ooh lalala, ooh lalala, ooh lalala
Ooh lalala, ooh lalala, ooh lalala, ooh lalala.
