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 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
 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
 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
