There's been rumors of war and wars that have been

The meaning of life has been lost in the wind

And some people thinkin' 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 talkin' about a war now for many long years

I've read all their statements and I've not said a word

But now, Lord 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 wild flowers 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

See the craters and the canyons and where the waterfalls run

Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Idaho

Let every state in this union see deep down in its soul

And you'll die in your footsteps, before you go down under the ground
