| | | Artist: | Bob Dylan |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Let Me Die In My Footstep | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 139 | | | | Lyrics: | I will not go down under the ground
"Cause somebody tells me that death's comin' 'round
An'
I will not carry myself down to die
When I go to my grave my head will be high,
Let me die
in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
There's been rumors of war and wars
that have been
The meaning of the life has been lost in the wind
And some people thinkin'
that the end is close by
"Stead of learnin' to live they are learning to die.
Let me die in
my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
I don't know if I'm smart but I think I
can see
When someone is pullin' the wool over me
And if this war comes and death's all
around
Let me die on this land 'fore I die underground.
Let me die in my
footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
There's always been people that have to
cause fear
They've been talking of the war now for many long years
I have read all their
statements and I've not said a word
But now Lawd God, let my poor voice be heard.
Let me die
in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
If I had rubies and riches and
crowns
I'd buy the whole world and change things around
I'd throw all the guns and the tanks
in the sea
For they are mistakes of a past history.
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I
go down under the ground.
Let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams
flood
Let me smell of wildflowers flow free through my blood
Let me sleep in your meadows
with the green grassy leaves
Let me walk down the highway with my brother in peace.
Let me
die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.
Go out in your country where the
land meets the sun
