lions of the kalahari
When I die won't you please feed me To the lions of the Kalahari? I don't care if they eat my bones ?Cause I know I won't be goin? home  Oh, it's never far away from me Oh, it's never far away from me  Rubber on dust as the wheels go round I had never heard a sweeter sound Till the day that I heard my baby cry These things I shall carry until I die  Oh, she's never far away from me Oh, she's never far away from me  The rains came heavy and we closed our eyes And listened to the song pourin? from the skies Two miles from the border as the eagle flies But the desert is the same on the other side  The leaves on Mt. Royal turn from green to gold And crimson as the autumn light takes hold October's here, I'm another year old There'll be more tellin? 'fore my story is told  Oh, when I die won't you please feed me To the lions of the Kalahari? I don't care if they eat my bones 'Cause I know I won't be goin? home  Oh, it's never far away from me Oh, it's never far away from me  Oh, she's never far away from me Oh, she's never far away from me  Oh, it's never far away from me Oh, I'm never far away from you
