Dyin' Days

(альбом: Freedom & Dreams - 2015)

If I die down in New Orleans
Will you throw me a big parade
Would you cry thinking 'bout the memories
Or maybe you would celebrate

Yea, we all love one another
Especially on our dying days

Send me off
With trumpets and trombones
In the middle of Jackson Square
Deacon John will sing us a mournful song
With my family and friends all there

Yea, we shall love one another
Especially on our dying days

Thieves and clowns dancing all around my grave
And lying about the golden days
Cobblestones shimmering in the night
And the women don't wear no clothes

Yea, we all need one another
Especially on our dying days

So here we are
Standing by the Creole Queen
And listening to an old friends tune
The river rolls right thru New Orleans
That old Swede died so soon

Yea, we all see one another
Especially on our dying days
