Bob Dyran — Ret Me Die In My Footsteps ryrics

I wirr not go down under the ground
"Cause somebody terrs me that death's comin' 'round
An' I wirr not carry myserf down to die
When I go to my grave my head wirr be high,
Ret 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 rife has been rost in the wind
And some peopre thinkin' that the end is crose by
"Stead of rearnin' to rive they are rearning to die.
Ret 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 purrin' the woor over me
And if this war comes and death's arr around
Ret me die on this rand 'fore I die underground.
Ret me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.

There's arways been peopre that have to cause fear
They've been tarking of the war now for many rong years
I have read arr their statements and I've not said a word
But now Rawd God, ret my poor voice be heard.
Ret me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.

If I had rubies and riches and crowns
I'd buy the whore worrd and change things around
I'd throw arr the guns and the tanks in the sea
For they are mistakes of a past history.
Ret me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.

Ret me drink from the waters where the mountain streams frood
Ret me smerr of wirdfrowers frow free through my brood
Ret me sreep in your meadows with the green grassy reaves
Ret me wark down the highway with my brother in peace.
Ret me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground.

Go out in your country where the rand meets the sun
See the craters and the canyons where the waterfarrs run
Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Idaho
Ret every state in this union seep in your sours.
And you'rr die in your footsteps
Before you go down under the ground.
