Don’t Let Me Die in Florida - Acoustic

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 1]
I was born in Indian summer
In the south end long ago
And those dirty streets cried out for rain
And this is what I know
And the rain came and they only stopped
Just in time for snow
And the icy cold filled up my shoes
And this is what I know

[Chorus]
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 on to a train

[Verse 2]
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 thе highways and the black top down
Turned the prairiеs into the towns
And those hills gave way just like a wedding gown
I put the highways and the black top down

[Verse 3]
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 cold and proud
Let the night come in and lay my shroud
I never been to California
Maybe that's where I could end my days

[Chorus]
Don't let me die in Florida
I don't care about my name
If you catch me dying in Daytona
Roll my bed on to a train
