| [00:02.14] |
I will not go down under the ground |
| [00:07.13] |
'Cause somebody tells me that death's comin' 'round |
| [00:12.69] |
And I will not carry myself down to die |
| [00:18.61] |
When I go to my grave my head will be high |
| [00:24.37] |
Let me die in my footsteps |
| [00:28.55] |
Mm before I go down under the ground |
| [00:35.62] |
There's been rumors of war and wars that have been |
| [00:40.66] |
The meaning of life has been lost in the wind |
| [00:46.35] |
And some people thinking that the end is close by |
| [00:52.10] |
'Stead of learning to live they are learning to die |
| [00:57.73] |
Let me die in my footsteps |
| [01:02.04] |
Mm before I go down under the ground |
| [01:08.87] |
I don't know if I'm smart but I think I can see |
| [01:14.74] |
When someone is pulling the wool over me |
| [01:20.61] |
And if this war comes and death's all around |
| [01:26.29] |
Let me die on this land 'fore I die underground |
| [01:31.91] |
Let me die in my footsteps |
| [01:35.91] |
Mm before I go down under the ground |
| [01:43.05] |
There's always been people that have to cause fear |
| [01:48.61] |
They've been talkin' about a war now for many long years |
| [01:54.61] |
I have read all their statements and I've not said a word |
| [02:00.43] |
But now Lord God let my poor voice be heard |
| [02:05.93] |
Let me die in my footsteps |
| [02:10.11] |
Mm before I go down under the ground |
| [02:16.80] |
Let me drink from the waters |
| [02:18.99] |
Where the mountain streams flood |
| [02:22.62] |
Let the smell of wildflowers flow free through my blood |
| [02:28.50] |
Let me sleep in your meadows |
| [02:30.68] |
With the green grassy leaves |
| [02:34.37] |
Let me walk down the highway with my brother in peace |
| [02:40.00] |
Let me die in my footsteps |
| [02:44.18] |
Mm before I go down under the ground |
| [02:51.12] |
Go out in your country |
| [02:53.22] |
Where the land meets the sun |
| [02:56.91] |
See the craters and the canyons |
| [02:59.10] |
And where the waterfalls run |
| [03:02.86] |
Nevada New Mexico Arizona Idaho |
| [03:08.68] |
Let every state in this union |
| [03:10.12] |
Seep deep down in your soul |
| [03:14.30] |
And you'll die in your footsteps |
| [03:18.48] |
Mm before you go down under the ground |
