Don T Let Me Die In Florida Lyrics - American Kid - Patty Griffin

Please don't let me die in Florida 

I don't care about my name 

If you catch me dying in Daytona 

Throw my bed onto a train 

I was born in Indian summer 

In the south, long ago 

And those dirty streets cried out for rain 

And this is what I know 

And the rains came and they only stopped 

Just in time for snow 

And the icy cold filled up my shoes 

And this is what know 

Please don't let me die in Florida 

I don't care about my name 

If you catch me dying in Orlando 

Throw my bed onto a train

Well, I 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 blacktop down 

Turned the prairies into the towns 

And those hills gave way just like a wedding gown 

I put the highways and the blacktop down 

I don't need to see no mirror 

I ain't never going to see my own face 

Just a reflection of somebody 

Who's going to leave without a trace 

Roll me over those hills so golden brown 

Let the night come in and lay my shroud 

I never been to California-i-a 

Maybe that's where I should end my days 

Don't let me die in Florida 

I don't care about my name 

If you catch me dying in Orlando 

Throw my bed onto a train
