Sam Roberts - Lions Of The Kalahari lyrics

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 going 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 pouring 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 telling '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) I don't care if they eat my bones 'Cause I know I won't be going 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
