My Morning Jacket - I Will Be There When You Die Lyrics

Joe was born in New York City
Son of Paul and Catherine
Always down and always out
But his 'morrows always seemed jus' fine

There will be bigotry and
There will be open minds
There will be days of peace
You'll never have the time
As long as you keep a straight face-I will be there when you die

I was born in east Kentucky
Home of where the grass is dyed
Always down and always out
But my 'morrows always seemed just fine

There will be bigotry and
There will be open minds
There will be days of peace
I hope you have the time
As long as you keep a straight face
I will be there when you die
