When I’m Gone Lyrics by Kassi Ashton
Everybody’s days are numbered, ain’t no use to sit and wonder
When the hourglass will run right out of sand
But as long as I’m still standing, I’ll live my reckless abandon
To the beat of my own rhythm till I hear that angel band
When they lay me in the ground and the good Lord calls me home
I have one last request before they shovel that dirt on
Tell ’em to bury me upside down without a bottom on
So all my critics can bend down and kiss my ass when I’m gone
When it comes, don’t cry for me, make my send away a party
An open invitation to everyone I knew
Before that old casket closes and you start throwing roses
Make sure all of my enemies walk past for one last view
When they lay me in the ground and the good Lord calls me home
I have one last request before they shovel that dirt on
Tell ’em to bury me upside down without a bottom on
So all my critics can bend down and kiss my ass when I’m gone
And I don’t mean to sound mean
But if you take it that way
Then you’ll get one last kiss
Before I fly away
When they lay me in the ground and the good Lord calls me home
I have one last request before they shovel that dirt on
Tell ’em to bury me upside down without a bottom on
So all my critics can bend down and kiss my ass when I’m gone
So all my critics can bend down and kiss my ass when I’m gone
