[Lawton Williams]
Original by Gene Watson (1978)

When the last breath of life is gone from my body
And my lips are as cold as the sea,
When my friends, gather round, for my farewell party
Won't you pretend you love me.

There'll be flower from those, who will cry when I go
And leave you in this ole world alone,
I know you'll have fun at my farewell party
I know you'll be glad when I'm gone

-- Instrumental --

Don't be mad at me, for wanting to keep you
Till my life on this ole world is through
You'll be free at the end of my farewell party
But I'll go away loving you

There'll be flowers from those who will cry when I go,
And leave you in this ole world alone
I know you'll have fun at my farewell party
I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
Yes, I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
