If I ever loose my eyes,
If my colors all run dry,
Oh if I ever loose my eyes,
then
I won't have to see any more.

If I ever loose my legs,
I won't moan and I won't beg,
Oh if I ever loose my legs,
then
I won't have to walk any more.

If I ever loose my mouth,
All my teeth, North and South,
Oh if I ever loose my mouth,
then
I won't have to talk any more.

And if I ever loose my life,
If my heart gives up this fight,
Oh if I ever loose my life,
then
I won't have to, any more.
