bob dylan - let me die in my footsteps (limited release only) lyrics

Loading...

i will not go down under the ground
’cause somebody tells me that death’s coming around
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 life has been lost in the wind
and some people thinking that the end is close by
’stead of learning 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 pulling 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

let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams flood
let the smell of wildflowers flow free through my blood
let me sleep in your meadows with the green gr-ssy 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
see the craters and the canyons where the waterfalls run
nevada, new mexico, arizona, idaho
let every state in this union seep down deep in your souls
and you’ll die in your footsteps
before you go down under the ground
