Dyin’ Ain’t So Bad (Alternates Version)
Barney:
Dyin' ain't so bad
Not if you both go together
Only when one's left behind does it get sad
But a short and loving life
That ain't so bad
Lauren:
I only hope to God that I go first
I couldn't live on memories
I'm sorry but I'm not that strong
Barney & Lauren:
There are some things in life you can't replace
A love like ours don't happen twice
When all your days are through
Mine will be too
Dyin' ain't so bad
Not if you both go together
Only when one's left behind does it get sad
But a short and lovin' life
That ain't so bad
Lauren:
I'vе met boys who talk about farms and horses
And they don't do much for mе
Barney:
I don't need to end up in a rockin' chair
Barney & Lauren:
Seems you get to live your life just once
And if that's how it's gotta be
Then I'd rather breathe in life
Lauren:
Than dusty air
Barney:
Than dusty air
Barney & Lauren:
Dyin' ain't so bad
Not if you both go together
Only when one's left behind does it get sad
Lauren:
But a short and lovin' life
Barney:
A short and lovin' life
Barney & Lauren:
A short and lovin' life
That ain't so bad
