When I'm Dead and Gone Songtext
von Def Leppard

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 wanna leave no epitaph of doom

Oh, when I'm dead and gone
I wanna leave some happy woman living on
Oh, when I'm dead and gone
I 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, there, lady, John son′s free
Who got the love, who got enough to keep a man like me

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

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


Ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la, yeah, yeah
Ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
