I'm Gonna Die Down Here Songtext
von Brian Dunne

Hey you′ve got your problems, and you've got your fears,
But you should probably keep them to yourself now, dear
You were born lucky, that′s something you should probably hear

You see, the moon's gonna shine, the road's gonna wind,
You′re gonna get to where you′re going in a matter of time,
Then you'll be sitting high in that easy chair,
But I′m gonna die down here

I'm gonna die down here where the sun hangs low,
Whether I′m burning up fast or I'm going down slow
You′ll be sitting high in that easy chair,
But I'm gonna die down here

So you swear nobody never helped you out,
Never slipped you a nickle, never pulled your plow
But you must be joking, oh honey, just look at you now

Well money makes money, isn't that what they say
But it′s funny how it′s funny that it works that way
'Cause you don′t hear me laughing now, do you, dear?
No, I'm gonna die down here


I′m gonna die down here where the sun hangs low,
Whether I'm burning up fast or I′m going down slow
You'll be sitting high in that easy chair,
But I'm gonna die down here

I′m gonna die down here, oh honey, you′ll see,
And you know nobody's gonna talk about me
You′ve got your problems, that's nice, my dear,
But I′m gonna die down here

Oh Mama, oh Mama, oh Mama,
I'm going down slow
Oh Mama, oh Mama, oh Mama,
I′m going down slow

I'm gonna die down here where the sun hangs low,
Whether I'm burning up fast or I′m going down slow
You′ll be sitting high in that easy chair,
But I'm gonna die down here

I′m gonna die down here, oh honey, you'll see,
And you know that nobody′s gonna talk about me
Well you've got your opinions, that′s nice, my dear,
But I'm gonna die down here

Well, it ain't the firing squad or the electric chair,
But I′m gonna die down here
