Lyrics:

Oh I love you, baby, I love you night and day
When I leave you, baby, don't cry the night away
When I die, don't you write no words upon my tomb
I don't believe I want to leave no epitaph of doom
Oh when I'm dead and gone
I wanna leave some happy woman living on
Oh when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave
Old Mama Linda, she's out to get my hide
She's got a shotgun and her daughter by her side
Hey there, ladies, Johnson's free
Who's got the love? Who's got enough to keep a man like me?
Oh when I'm dead and gone
I wanna leave some happy woman living on
Oh when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave
Oh when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave
Oh when I'm dead and gone
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave
