Please don't let me die in Florida
I don't care about my name
If you catch me dying in Daytona
Roll my bed on to a train
I was born in Indian summer
In the South End 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 I know
Please don't let me die in Florida
I don't care about my name
If you catch me dying in Orlando
Roll my bed on to 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 at home and gave my girl a ring
I put the highways and the black top down
Turned the prairies into the towns
And those hills gave way just like a wedding gown
I put the highways and the black top down
I don't need to see no mirror
I ain't never gonna see my own face
Just a reflection of somebody
Who's gonna leave without a trace
Roll me over them, hills so cold and proud
Let the night come in and lay my shroud
I ain't never been to Cal-i-forn-aye-ay
Maybe that's where I should end my days
Please don't let me die in Florida
I don't care about my name
If you catch me dying in Orlando
Roll my bed on to a train
The Dixie Chicks are an American country music group formed in Texas in 1989. The trio consists of Natalie Maines (lead vocals), Emily Strayer (banjo, guitar) and Martie Maguire (fiddle, mandolin). Initially known for their traditional country sound, the Dixie Chicks gained international recognition with albums like "Wide Open Spaces" (1998) and "Fly" (2000), which sold millions of copies worldwide. Their success was marked by numerous Grammy Awards, including five in the category "Best Country Album". In 2003, the Dixie Chicks became embroiled in controversy due to Natalie Maines' anti-war remarks during a concert in London. This led to a strong negative reaction from some fans and the loss of support from some country radio stations. Despite the controversy, the group remained active, releasing albums such as "Taking the Long Way" (2006) and "Gaslighter" (2020).
