If I Died (September 10, 2024) Songtext
von Jesse Welles

If I died and I was dead
There′d be no need to fix my head
There'd be no need to go to work
Renew the tags
Or wear a shirt
I wouldn′t need nothing to do
If it were me
Could've been you

Doot-doot-doot-doot
Doot-doot-doot-doot-doot-Dead


If I died and it were aught
I'd grow a tree and that would rot
And then it′d bloom, sure enough
It′s part of things, it's part of stuff
To everything
You gotta turn
You don′t deserve
What you earn

Doot-doot-doot-doot
Doot-doot-doot-doot-doot-Dead

When you die
They don't know
If there′s a place you gotta go
But, hopefully there ain't chores
Just John Prine
Celestial doors
And good friends
And fun times
Like the ones that fill up my mind

Doot-doot-doot-doot
Doot-doot-doot-doot-doot doo
