Lyrics Don't Let Me Die in Florida (Acoustic) - The Chicks

Please don′t let me die in Florida
I don't care about my name
If you catch me dying in Daytona
Roll my bed onto a train

I was born in Indian summer
In the south end long ago
Those dirty streets cry out for rain
And this is what I know

And the rain came and they only stopped
Just in time for snow
And the icey cold filled up my shoes
And this is what I know

Please don′t let me die in Florida
I don't care about my name
If you catch me dying in Ocala
Roll my bed onto a train

Well, we went to war to fight the Japs
When the war was over
I threw my cap
Just as far as you could throw a thing
I went home and gave my girl a ring
I put the highways and the black top down
Turned the prairies into the towns
And those hills gave way just like a wedding gown
I put the highways and the black top down

I don't need to see no mirror
I ain′t never gonna see my own face
Just a reflection of somebody
Who′s gonna leave without a trace
Roll me over them hills so gold and proud
Let the night come in and lay my shroud
I ain't never been to California, ay
Maybe that′s where I could end my days

Don't let me die in Florida
I don′t care about my name
If you catch me dying in Ocala
Roll my bed onto a train, yeah
