Let Me Die in My Footsteps
[01:49]I will not go down under the ground
[01:54]Cause somebody tells me that death's comin' 'round
[01:59]And I will not carry myself down to die
[02:05]When I go to my grave my head will be high
[02:11]Let me die in my footsteps
[02:17]Before I go down under the ground.
[02:25]There's been rumors of war and wars that have been
[02:31]The meaning of the life has been lost in the wind
[02:36]And some people thinking that the end is close by
[02:42]Stead of learning to live they are learning to die
[02:48]Let me die in my footsteps
[02:52]Before I go down under the ground.
[03:00]I don't know if I'm smart but I think I can see
[03:05]When someone is pulling the wool over me
[03:13]And if this war comes and death's all around
[03:17]Let me die on this land before I die underground.
[03:24]Let me die in my footsteps
[03:28]Before I go down under the ground.
[03:34]There's always been people that have to cause fear
[03:40]They've been talking of the war now for many long years
[03:47]I have read all their statements and I've not said a word
[03:55]But now Lawd God, let my poor voice be heard.
[03:59]Let me die in my footsteps
[04:03]Before I go down under the ground.
[04:11]If I had rubies and riches and crowns
[04:15]I'd buy the whole world and change things around
[04:22]I'd throw all the guns and the tanks in the sea
[04:27]For they are mistakes of a past history.
[04:33]Let me die in my footsteps
[04:38]Before I go down under the ground.
[04:45]Let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams flood
[04:51]Let me smell of wildflowers flow free through my blood
[04:56]Let me sleep in your meadows with the green grassy leaves
[05:01]Let me walk down the highway with my brother in peace.
[05:06]Let me die in my footsteps
[05:10]Before I go down under the ground.
[05:19]Go out in your country where the land meets the sun
[05:25]See the craters and the canyons where the waterfalls run
[05:30]Nevada, NewMexico, Arizona, Idaho
[05:35]Let every state in this union seep in your souls
[05:42]And you'll die in your footsteps
[05:46]Before you go down under the ground
