Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Kingdoms to slavery, iron goes to rust We all must die someday Well I know it's true. But if you're ready... it won't bother you
On the day that my daddy passed away There were so many things I wanted to say, I turned onto the dusty road that would bring me to my destiny, sure of myself, and certain that my vision was about to be made manifest. But before I could get there on a plane Well he went on - wrote down these words And they're what I sing He said son,
Ashes go to ashes, dust goes to dust Kingdoms to slavery, yeah, iron goes to rust We all must die one day Well I know it's true. But if you're ready, my son... it won't bother you
Well I heard these words the first time at his grave And for some reason, my mind, these words did save. Now anytime I'm feeling down or blue These words come back to me and now to you
Ashes go to ashes, dust goes to dust Kingdoms to slavery, yeah yeah, iron goes to rust. We all must die one day, Well I know it's true But if you're ready, my son... it won't bother you. |
