Big Dog

"Too Many Rivers to Cross" by Jimmy Cliff

Amazing Grace definitely played on bagpipes.
"My way" has been somewhat of a theme song for me of late but ultimately this one:

Blood Sweat & Tears:
I'm not scared of dying
And I don't really care
If it's peace you find in dying well then
Let the time be near
If it's peace you find in dying
And if dying time is near
Just bundle up my coffin
'Cause it's cold way down there
I hear that it's cold way down there
Yeah crazy cold way down there
And when I die
And when I'm gone
There'll be one child born
In this world to carry on
To carry on
Now troubles are many
They're as deep as a well
I can swear there ain't no heaven
But I pray there ain't no hell
Yes I swear there ain't no heaven
and I pray there ain't no hell
But I'll never know by living
Only my dying will tell
Yes only my dying will tell
Yeah only my dying will tell
And when I die
And when I'm gone
There'll be one child born
In this world to carry on
To carry on
Yeah~Hoo
Give me my freedom
For as long as I can be
All I ask of living
Is to have no chains on me
All I ask of living
Is to have no chains on me
And all I ask of dying is to go naturally
Oh I want to go naturally
Here I go
Hey hey
Here comes the devil
Right behind
Look out children
Here he comes
Don't want to go by the devil
Don't want to go by demon
Don't want to go by Satan
Don't want to die uneasy
Just let me go naturally
And when I die
When I am dead, dead and gone
There'll be one child born
In our world to carry on
To carry on yeah yeah

I also want Amazing Grace played on the bag pipes.

I also have a tee-shirt I want to be wearing. On the front, it says, I'd rather be breathing. On the back it says, keep the fun in funeral.

"Keep Your Eyes on the Pr........" WAIT! Sorry... Flashback.....

Actually, all joking asside. I've been thinking about this since my Mother-in-Law's funeral this summer. I think I'd like to have either Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" or Tim McGraw's "Please Remember Me" played at my funeral.
