42. When I Am Gone, Gone, Gone

1
When I'm gone, gone, gone
when I'm gone to die no mo'
Church I know yo' goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
2
Yo' goin' to miss me by muh walk
Yo' goin' to miss me by muh talk
Church I know yo' goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
3
Yo' goin' to miss de wuk I do
Yo' goin' to miss me f'om muh pew
Church I know yo' goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
4
Yo' goin' to miss me fo' muh song
Yo' goin to miss me all day long
Church I know yo' goin' to miss me when I'm gone.

When I'm Gone in W. A. Fisher, Seventy Negro Spirituals, has the emphasis on 'Don't grieve after me'.
