" She'll be coming round the Mountain when she comes"

BluesBrother

Monty Python's anthem

"Always look on the bright side of life.

[whistling]

If life seems jolly rotten,

There's something you've forgotten,

And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.

When you're feeling in the dumps,

Don't be silly chumps.

Just purse your lips and whistle. That's the thing.

And...

Always look on the right side of life,

[whistling]

For life is quite absurd

And death's the final word.

You must always face the curtain with a bow.

Forget about your sin.

Give the audience a grin.

Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow.

So,...

Always look on the bright side of death,

[whistling]

Just before you draw your terminal breath.

[whistling]

Life's a piece of shit,

When you look at it.

Life's a laugh and death's a joke. It's true.

You'll see it's all a show.

Keep 'em laughing as you go.

Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

And...

Always look on the bright side of life.

[whistling]

Can't think of any funny ones that haven't already been posted.

Here's one that will play at my funeral:

In My Time Of Dying
Led Zeppelin (Bonham/Jones/Page/Plant)
but was originally done by Blind Willie Johnson.
It was also recorded by Josh White in the 30s, and by Bob Dylan on his first album in 1962.

LYRICS:

In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home

Well, well, well, so I can die easy (X2)

Jesus, gonna make up my dyin' bed.
Meet me, Jesus, meet me. Meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, Lord. Please meet me with another pair

Well, well, well, so I can die easy (X2)

Jesus, gonna make up.. somebody, somebody...
Jesus gonna make up... Jesus gonna make you my dyin' bed

Oh, Saint Peter, i command to live... Won't you let me in
I never did no harm. I never did no wrong

Oh, Gabriel, let me blow your horn. Let me blow your horn
Oh, I never did, did no harm.

I've only been this young once. I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong
No, not once.

Oh, I did somebody some good. Somebody some good...
Oh, did somebody some good. I must have did somebody some good...
Oh, I believe I did

I see the smiling faces
I know I must have left some traces

And I see them in the streets
And I see them in the field
And I hear them shouting under my feet
And I know it's got to be real
Oh, Lord, deliver me
All the wrong I've done
You can deliver me, Lord
I only wanted to have some fun.

Hear the angels marchin', hear the' marchin', hear them marchin',
hear them marchin', the' marchin'

Oh my Jesus... (repeat)

Oh, don't you make it my dyin', dyin', dyin'...cough

It was only a neighborhood dance that's all that it was but oh what it seemed to be.

It was like a masquarade ball with costumes and all

because you were at that dance with me.

It was just a ride on a ride on a train that's all that it was but oh what it seemed to be,

because you were on that train with me

It was only a wedding in june but oh what it seemed to be.

It was like a royal affair with everyone there

because you said yes I do to me.

And when you kissed me darling it was more than just a thrill for me.

It was a promise darling of things that fate had willed for me

Sung by Frank Sinatra
