“So when I'm killed, don't wait for me,
Walking the dim corridor;
In Heaven or Hell, don't wait for me,
Or you must wait for evermore.
You'll find me buried, living-dead
In these verses that you've read.”

“When I'm killed, don't think of me
Buried there in Cambrin Wood,
Nor as in Zion think of me
With the Intolerable Good.
And there's one thing that I know well,
I'm damned if I'll be damned to Hell!”

“You may have given me the breaks,
amended all my life's mistakes,
ooh, but wait a minute,
you don't own me.
You may be more than just a friend
on whose assistance I depend
ooh, but wait a minute,
you don't own me.”
