When I'm Gone 

Words & Music by Phil Ochs 

As performed by Allison Crowe 

 

There's no place in this world where I'll belong when I'm gone 

And I won't know the right from the wrong when I'm gone 

And you won't find me singin' on this song when I'm gone 

So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here 

 

I won't feel the flowing of the time when I'm gone 

And all the pleasures of love will not be mine when I'm gone 

My pen won't pour out a lyric line when I'm gone 

So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here 

 

And I won't breathe the bracing air when I am gone 

And I won't even worry 'bout my cares when I'm gone 

And I won't be asked to do my share when I'm gone 

So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here 

 

And I won't be running from the rain when I am gone 

I can't even suffer from the pain when I am gone 

I can't say who's to praise and who's to blame when I'm gone 

So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here 

 

And Ion't see the golden of the sun when I am gone 

And the evenings and the mornings will be one when I am gone 

I can't be singing louder than the guns when I'm gone 

So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here 

 

So I guess I'll have to do it while I'm here
