My anti cancer lullaby

I rewrote the lyrics to "I'll Fly Away" as a lullaby to the tumor's who live in my lungs. I sing it most nights. I have a weak singing voice, though. Singing requires a lot more breath than I normally have.

If you can sing, sing it for me. Or for the tumor's living inside of someone else's body. Put it up on YouTube.

Some versions of the original song:
Alison Krause and Gillian Welch
Johnny Cash

I am not sure if all my words works, but here they are:
Some bright morning, when the chemo's over
I'll kill you all
All the cancer cells will then be gone
I'll kill you all

(Chorus)
I'll kill you all, oh tumors
I'll kill you all in the morning
When you die, hallelujah, by and by, I'll celebrate!

When the CT scans come back all clear,
I killed you all
Like a bird, my heart and soul will fly,
I'll kill you all

Chorus

Oh how glad and happy will I be
I'll kill you all
No more chemo sessions all the time
I'll kill you all

Chorus

Just a few more chemo sessions and
I'll kill you all
And my body's health restored again.
I'll kill you all

Chorus
