Lyrics:
I will not go down under the ground
’Cause somebody tells me that death’s coming around
An’ I will not carry myself down to die
When I go to my grave my head will be high
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground
#BobDylan #LetMeDieInMyFootsteps #OfficialAudio
I’ve heard almost every Dylan song and this is still near the top
of the heap for me.
Written in March 1962 (and first sung on March 19th) this precedes "Blowing in the Wind" by a month and is therefore Dylan's first masterpiece. I might even suggest that it's a better, or more substantial, song than "Blolwing.." The Muses had begun to take the young man in hand!
It is much, much better, brother!
It's deeper.
In remembrance of the 60th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Thank you John, Bobby and Bobby.
@@torvilasulvstle362 Your might be right
At least someone's caring about writing this stuff down.
I’ve read all their statements and I’ve not said a word, but now, Lord God, let my poor voice be heard
Let me walk down the highway with my brother in peace ✌
Biblical. Dylan will be the one artist from our time that will be revered centuries from now.
Designer of my life. Where would i be without Dylan.
...❓❓❓
I am 78 years old and after hearing this song I feel like 20 and want to fight back.
Me, too. Now at 74, I'm am fighting back, again. TY
Learning to live
I still know this song it true of passage of life
Same here, although I'm 42
This song is now over 60 years old but its message on war still resonates . .
Dylan at his greatest.
I'm always amazed how relevant Dylans songs are today. But then I remember that we have alot of the same struggles and troubles as people did thousands of years ago.
God Damn, I'm glad to have heard this work before I die. 🤗
Been a Dylan fan for years and yet I keep hearing new 'old' songs. This is one of the best of them.
His old songs keep getting newer as I get older.
He sounds so mature but was just 20 at the time
My god. So powerful.
Bob Dylan the Best Artist all time.
Agreed
Sou fã incondicional de Bob Dylan ,música que toca na alma...❤❤❤❤
Here we are again march 2022
Exactly...which is why I went back to this beautiful gem.
I feel so humbled and moved by this song. Thank you Bob
first heard dylan around 82 aged 14 via masterpieces. a lifelong devotion. what a writer.
Verse 1]
I will not go down under the ground
’Cause somebody tells me that death’s coming 'round
An’ I will not carry myself down to die
When I go to my grave my head will be high
[Refrain]
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground
[Verse 2]
There’s been rumors of war and wars that have been
The meaning of life has been lost in the wind
And some people thinking that the end is close by
’Stead of learning to live they are learning to die
[Refrain]
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground
[Verse 3]
I don’t know if I’m smart but I think I can see
When someone is pulling the wool over me
And if this war comes and death’s all around
Let me die on this land ’fore I die underground
Refrain]
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground
[Verse 4]
There’s always been people that have to cause fear
They’ve been talking about war now for many long years
I have read all their statements and I’ve not said a word
But now Lawd God, let my poor voice be heard
[Refrain]
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground
[Verse 5]
Let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams flood
Let the smell of wildflowers flow free through my blood
Let me sleep in your meadows with the green grassy leaves
Let me walk down the highway with my brother in peace
[Refrain]
Let me die in my footsteps
Before I go down under the ground
[Verse 6]
Go out in your country where the land meets the sun
See the craters and the canyons where the waterfalls run
Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Idaho
Let every state in this union seep down deep in your souls
And you’ll die in your footsteps
Before you go down under the ground
Thank you for the lyrics. It makes this wonderful song, which I have not heard before, even more enjoyable
thanks
I feel oh so happy reading the way that people have been affected by this beautiful work of art by good ole Bobby D. Let's all try our best in order to look out for each other. I know that what I'm saying might come off as corny, but all the same, I truly do mean what I'm saying.
I love you Bob Dylan you are so true to yourself and your love for reality I believe you will always stand in your footsteps my love 💞💞 Elizabeth 🙏
Great song
“The meaning of life has been lost in the wind” and it’s blowing in it .
Yeah... its gone gone gone
Unforgettable young Bobby Dylan !
First time I hear this nice music. I have been reading chronicles of Bob Dylan
This song and this version are wonderful... I love this voice clear and sweet. In other hands, this lyrics seems a predestination...💖
How the hell was this song not included on The Freewheelin album??????
Maybe because the world wasn't ready for it yet, or because people are not gifted with 20:20 hindsight - or maybe that's the same thing. Or maybe because Dylan likes to cover his tracks, and Blowin in the Wind and Hard Rain are further developments on this theme. But I agree - it is one of his very best.
This song is relevant today
Thanks for everything mister dylan❤️🎼🔝😊
I was just on the phone with my daughter talking about going to Pat and her mom's grave next week. Its Pats Birthday and she and loved Easter so I was trying to think of something to put on her grave that is something from Easter. I hang up and see Bob Dylan singing this song. COOL👍❤😥 Good song. Appropriate for the day.
Hello Dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
My wife bought his book for a dollar for me..this is what lead me here
"I look in the mirror
Two reflections I see
One of me now
The other the way I used to be.."
RLH...1985..
Where is that quote from? Tried googling but nothing comes up
Beautiful ❤
This song was replaced by A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall on the Freewheelin album. I always wondered why they couldn't have included both songs on the album.
There will never be another like my beloved 🌹
Amazing Bob dylan
This is in my top 10 Dylan songs ever (not that it's possible to draw a line at 10). Fascinating to see the evolution of Dylan. The seeds of Blowin' in the Wind are in this song and in No More Auction Block. I was listening to Planet Waves tonight - hadn't listened to it for decades, and not a favourite at all - but now I can see it was a necessary precursor to the awesome Blood On The Tracks which is a further development of that musical style.
Wow. My all time favorite. Was just a kid when I first heard it, now 74! Now am marching and dragging my protest signs. But have his songs to inspire me.
Hope you’re listening today
Dylan, you are always a compass.
In remembrance of the 60th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Thank you for our lives John and Bobby.
And for this great song, Bobby.
I was in 3rd grade when the existential threat of horrific nuclear annihilation was driven home almost daily in school with the duck and cover drills and evacuation to the fallout shelters. Despite it not happening, the "fallout" has poisoned me for life. We could have been spared all that horrible torture because as the bigger kids liked to say... "Yeah, bend over, put your head between your knees, and kiss your @ss goodbye!"
Very beautiful song 👍
I love this
One of his best songs from the 60s, no doubt.
Ricordo con nostalgia come mia madre era sorpresa del genere musicale, per lei così strano, quando ascoltavo negli anni 60 le canzoni, di Dylan. Sono contento che sia stato un fan del futuro Nobel.
❤
I first heard this in poem form on the movie dangerous minds. I didn't realize it was actually a song by bob
thank you Robert Dylan
Robert Zimmerman*
Dylan dawg
When you can feel another's pain, that's love. God always has the last say in every situation. Learn to live and prepare for the next life, which is eternal. I Love You Bob Dylan. 😘🌹 Victoria
Ain’t that the G-ds honest truth 🙏🏼 !!!

Nothing more than truth had being said as true statement
The passport says Dylan was born May 11, 1941, but the official view is May 24th. And yes, a great song.
I caught that too when this collection came out. Nice.
⭐️🎼
Dylan and his namesake, Dylan Thomas - thinking alike on this issue. This would make a great double-A side single: "Let Me Die in My Footsteps" on one side, and DT reading his timeless poem, "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night", on the other.
❤❤❤
I will not go down under the ground
"Cause somebody tells me that death's comin' 'round

Let me die in my footsteps

The meaning of the life has been lost in the wind
And some people thinkin' that the end is close by
"Stead of learnin' to live they are learning to die.

Before I go down under the ground.
I don't know if I'm smart but I think I can see
When someone is pullin' the wool over me

Of all of Bob Dylan's songs, this was the most reminiscent of a Woody Guthrie song. In fact, if I didn't know better, I would have guessed this was a Woody Guthrie song. This may be the reason Dylan left this song off of the 'Freewheelin' album. At the time, he was slowly moving away from the Guthrie link.
The real National Anthem!
His first song 😁
Apparently Mr. Dylan thought this was a corny tune, I respectfully disagree with him!
Me too
before i go down under the ground

Other than Visions of Johanna, my favorite Dylan song
This song is so perfect for today's political climate
Definitely one of Bob Dylan's best early songs. Resonates about the threat of nuclear warfare circa 1962 and the need to go 'underground' ie into a fall-out shelter; yet at the same time a metaphor for death in a wider sense (or the need to 'survive' and re-create to avoid death and destruction) which are common themes in Literature and poetry throughout history e.g. World War One poet's like Siegfried Sassoon juxtaposing warfare and death with images of nature and renewal. Better than A Hard Rain imo and should have been included
on the Freewheelin' album.
Eu não irei para baixo da terra,
Porque alguém me diz que a morte esta chegando.
E eu não traçarei minha vida para a morte,
Quando eu for para meu túmulo, será de cabeça erguida.
Deixe-me morrer em meus passos,
Antes que eu vá para baixo da terra.
Há rumores de guerras e de guerras que se foram,
O sentido da vida que se perdeu no vento.
E algumas pessoas pensando que o fim esta chegando,
Ao invés de aprenderem a viver, estão aprendendo a morrer.
Deixe-me morrer em meus passos,
Antes que eu vá para baixo da terra.
Eu não sei se sou esperto, mas eu acho que posso ver,
Quando alguém esta puxando o manto sobre mim.
E se essa guerra chegar e a morte por toda parte,
Deixe-me morrer nessa vida antes que eu seja enterrado.
Deixe-me morrer em meus passos,
Antes que eu vá para baixo da terra.
Há sempre pessoas que têm que causar medo,
Eles vem falando de guerra por muitos longos anos.
Eu li todos os seus pronunciamentos sem dizer uma palavra,
Mas agora bom Deus, deixe minha pobre voz ser ouvida.
Deixe-me morrer em meus passos,
Antes que eu vá para baixo da terra.
Se eu tivesse rubis, riquezas e coroas,
Eu compraria o mundo inteiro e mudaria as coisas ao redor.
Jogaria as armas e os tanques no mar,
Porque eles são erros do passado.
Deixe-me morrer em meus passos,
Antes que eu vá para baixo da terra.
Deixe-me beber as águas nas nascentes da montanha.
Deixe-me sentir o cheiro das flores silvestres fluir em meu sangue.
Deixe-me dormir em seu jardim com as folhas verdes de grama.
Deixe-me seguir a estrada com meu irmão em paz.
Deixe-me morrer em meus passos,
Antes que eu vá para baixo da terra.
Viaje pelo seu país e descubra onde a terra encontra o sol.
Veja as crateras e canyons por onde as cachoeiras escoam.
Nevada, Novo México, Arizona, Idaho.
Que cada estado dessa união penetre em sua alma.
E você vai morrer em seus passos,
Antes que você vá para baixo da terra.
Eu estava copiando esse poema/canção para colar num tradutor e achei sua? tradução ... no dia em que me for deste mundo, serei grato ao Universo por ter existido no mesmo tempo em que viveram Dylan, Caetano, Gil, Chico, Beatles, Leminski, C. Castañeda, Ray Bradbury, Alan Moore e mais uns poucos ... muito obrigado pela gentileza.
@@lorivaldorocha7520 penso o mesmo! O mundo se torna um lugar melhor quando gênios desse nível realizam a sua arte com essa maestria. Viva Dylan! Viva John! Viva Chico! E Viva a música!!!
This song is referenced in "Dangerous Minds" - somehow it relates to a Dylan Thomas poem. [You know, the one about death.]
Reyno cigarette? was that Bob Dylan's favorite when he was a heavy smoker?
My mother would not let me sing
Blowing in the wind in choir in school. College kids coming to HS
To get students to protest with
Them. Different time ,Different
Ideas
🇺🇸🇺🇸🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
can anyone tell me the strumming pattern?
it's like a 6/8 feel I think. old English ballad common thing..
So true, special for young people, because they are particularly at risk- all over the world. Not only Putin let's them die in his footsteps. Everybody has the right to life as he was promised when he was born!!
Yes RAa ystäviä ystäviä RAa
It all feels too much rn
Is that really his passport?
Hard rain replaced it.
birthdate wrong on that passport tho?
I'm not the one to follow my nose on that one, especially that someone did come to ask about me when I wasn't doing so good. Don't research. Strengthen United Nations properly and do the right deeds, don't philosophize on this.
歌詞がわからない…
@@melongod2094 おぉ、ちょっと難しいですね。どこの国の方ですか？ありがとうございます😊
Where is Gonzalo Lira ?
He’s still around and gives interviews. Don’t see why you’re mentioning his name of you’re referring to the war In Ukraine which the CIA and Victoria Nuland helped orchestrate with the Maidan Coup back in 2014. Don’t tell me though, you think that all of this is Mr Putins fault despite well respected academics like Noam Chomsky warning that this would happen thanks to the US and their NATO allies breaking their agreement with Mikhail Gorbachev regarding NATO expansion along with Zelenksy claiming that he would sign the Minsk Agreement once he comes into office. I’m sorry, but the situation in Ukraine doesn’t all fall at the hands of Mr Putin I’m afraid despite what western governments and the corporate media like to report.
I tell kids of antiwar protest songs
Explain. They have no clue. I'm so glad I grew up in 60s. I talk about
Ohio state massacre of innocent.
Students. They have no interest .
Wow, it's part us. .
Who's here because Putin
Yup
Yup
Yup
What, you mean because of the war Victoria Nuland and the CIA helped orchestrate with the Maidan Coup back in 2014?…..
The US and their NATO allies are the biggest warmongers in the world, but you’re here because of Vladimir Putin. The hypocrisy and double standards from people like you is incredible. 🤦🏽♂️
