Lyrics
I'm gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Gonna miss the way we got along.
Me and myself through right and wrong.
I'm gonna miss me when I'm gone.

I'm gonna miss me when I die.
When I'm called up to the by and by.
I'll miss the flowers and the trees.
But most of all, I'm gonna miss me.

I'm the best friend I ever had.
I know to you that might seem sad.
But over here it ain't no joke.
I'm gonna miss me when I’ll croak.

When everything is said and done.
I'll miss the world and all its fun.
I'll miss the things I used to do.
And I might even miss you too.

I'm the best friend I ever had.
I know to you that might seem sad.
But over here it ain't no joke.
I'm gonna miss me when I’ll croak.

I'm gonna miss me when I go.
Gonna miss the sunshine, rain, and snow.
And I'll miss me singing this song.
About missing me when I'm gone.

Great version and such funny lyrics. When it comes to songs as sardonic as this, I think of Willie Nelson with "Roll Me Up And Smoke Me When I Die" and "Last Man Standing"

Dyl at his most pop? Appealingly upbeat, fun lyrics, and as always, so much instrumental richness that can be heard so clearly

That’s very tongue-in-cheek. The lyrics are great and your gravely voice is wonderful. The mix is also of a high standard. One thing I notice with many artists here is the mix quality. It’s truly professional with most of them.

Funny, yes. But with a subtle and genuine undercurrent of heart and melancholia...and your arrangement, so lush and affecting; AmateurHour said it best, "instrumental richness", YES that describes it perfectly! Kudos Dyl! xo

@Dav @Telemetry @sammydix @zincshed @Daugrin @StanTheManLoh @Garni @Amateurhour @MojcaCzarka @TrebleFace @Sprout @morgan102 @ACES Thank you all very much for listening and your words ! I guess mortality is the only thing we're absolutely sure in life and gives us the perfect subject for books, songs, plays and arts ... This one is sardonic but also quite profound, me thinks ... Oh and : The original version was totally different (tex-mex-mariachi style). Have fun before it's too late !  Thanks again for the warm welcome ...

I mean we all have to be our own best friend. 😂😂
I'm impressed at your lyrical ability. I know this is in jest, but it's still really well thought out and it jives well.

Love it! The poppy delivery of the sardonic humor in the lyrics is perfect.
Not familiar with the original, but read up on Ben Vaughn and putting him on my playlist for this weekend.
Thanks for sharing!
