One of these days I’m bound to wake up dead No one gets out alive, I’ve heard it said I reach to the sky & find a hole in the middle Look straight down & see hell’s hot griddle Leap in the moon with a hey diddle diddle Precious dear, take a good close look at me Never know if it’s the last time you’ll see This transitory piece of celestial matter One more seed that has been scattered I once was former, I’ll soon be latter I’m just passin’ through Just passin’ through It’s a sweet short ride through a beautiful place If you can’t dig it, it’s a real disgrace It’s a miracle, but commonplace Seems to me a bad rap’s laid on death As though you're weak to breathe your own last breath Aint as if I don’t really love livin’ Not the least bit tired of the takin’ & the givin’ When I go, it’ll all be forgiven I’m just passin’ through I’m just passin’ through And it’s a sweet short ride through a beautiful place If you can’t dig it, it’s a real disgrace It’s a miracle, but commonplace
