Will the churchbells be ringing
When they carry you away
Will the ice be melting
When they carry you away
Will the children be singing
When they carry you away
Will the river be flowing
When they carry you away
Carry you away
Maybe not today
But someday
Carry you away
Will the lovers be kissing
When they carry you away
Will the leaves be falling
When they carry you away
Will the drunks be shouting
When they carry you away
Will the whores be charming
When they carry you away
Carry you away
Maybe not today
But someday
Carry you away
Heavy mother
Imagine carrying your dead weight
It might not be too late
To lighten up a bit
And lose some weight
I tell you man
You gotta lose some weight
Carry you away
Maybe not today
But someday
Carry you away
Will the churchbells be ringing
