When I Die

Lyrics: [none]
Music: Smith, Kennedy

An instrumental played by Jerry Garcia with Merl Saunders with Legion Of Mary. It was originally recorded in 1969 by Motherlode on their debut album with lyrics:

When I die I hope to be
A better man than you thought I would be
It's been hard to make you see
What kind of man I'm trying to be

All I ask for you to try
To understand what it means to me

It's not hard to understand why you
Get discouraged all the time
I keep tryin' not to worry, but I
Can't help feelin' lost in you
But I loove you, love you
And I need you

Time goes by and you'll find
That we'll achieve a love sublime

When I die I hope to be
The kind of man than you thought I could be

It's not hard to understand why you
Get discouraged all the time
I keep trying not to worry, but I
Can't help feeling lost in you
'Cause I love you, love you
And I need you

'Cause I love you and I want you
'Cause I got to, got to have you
Darling 'cause I need you

When I die I hope I'll be
The kind od man than you thought I could be
The kind of man that you thought I could be
The kind of man that you thought I could be
