lyrics

When I Go
Well we saw everybody
at that old home church
wearing black clothes
and white button-up shirts
it was time to celebrate the life
of a damn good man

well they carried that pine box
down the block
without a word said the whole way
no not a smile in the whole damn crowd
no certainly not on this funeral day

Well when I go
I demand that everybody stands up
and dances on their seats
there will be music playing on the day
that life carries my old soul away

There will be no frowns
just the sounds
of you partying down
as they lower me into the ground
there will be music playing on the day
that life carries my old soul away

and we’ll say “Oh, my my
how the time does fly
when you’re living your life by the speed of light”

“oh my my,
how the time does fly
when you know your gonna die
by the end of the night”

So have a drink on me
and all I ask is that you please
enjoy my last party
