It wouldn't matter

It wouldn't matter
If you lived in a house or a hut,
It wouldn't matter
If you earned in pounds or pennies,
It wouldn't matter
If you slept on bed or bare ground,
It wouldn't matter
If you remained fed or starved,
It wouldn't matter
If you rode a car or a cart,
It wouldn't matter
If you smoked or ate fire,
It wouldn't matter
If you stole or stabbed,
It wouldn't matter
If you swore or sang hymns,
It wouldn't matter
If you  loved or were loved,
Because all that you leave behind,
One day is a jar of ashes.
