lyrics

If I die, twenty two dollars in my fist,
cinnamon brandy on my lips,
take me downtown to rest on a cotton bed with a silk pillowcase
Take off my clothes and shave my head,
Don't let them dare pronounce me dead
Tell all my friends alive that I've crossed the light
and I'm still tellin' it
Yeah I'm still tellin' it

Oooh ooh ooh ooh Don't let me die
Oooh ooh ooh ooh Don't let me die
Oooh ooh ooh ooh Don't let me die

If I die, twenty two dollars in my fist,
cinnamon brandy on my lips,
take me downtown to rest on a cotton bed with a silk pillowcase
Take off my clothes and shave my head,
Don't let them dare pronounce me dead
Tell all my friends alive that I've crossed the light
and I'm still tellin' it
Yeah I'm still tellin' it

Oooh ooh ooh ooh don't let me die
Oooh ooh ooh ooh don't let me die
Oooh ooh ooh ooh don’t let me die

If I die, twenty two dollars in my fist,
cinnamon brandy on my lips,
take me downtown to rest on a cotton bed with a silk pillowcase
