Iron Maiden - Die with Your Boots On Lyrics

Artist: Iron Maiden

Album: Piece Of Mind

  • Songwriters: Paul Bruce Dickinson, Stephen Percy Harris, Adrian Smith

If you're gonna die
If you're gonna die
If you're gonna die
Die with your boots on
Come on

Yeah, another prophet of disaster
Who says the ship is lost
Another prophet of disaster
Leaving you to count the cost
Taunting us with visions
Afflicting us with fear
Predicting war for millions
In the hope that one appears

No point asking when it is
No point asking who's to go
No point in asking what's the game
No point asking who's to blame
'Coz if you're gonna die, you're gonna die
If you're gonna die
If you're gonna die

If you're gonna die, die with your boots on
If you're gonna try, just stick around
Gonna cry, just move along
If you're gonna die, you're gonna die
You're gonna die, die with your boots on
If you're gonna try, just stick around
Gonna cry, just move along
If you're gonna die, you're gonna die

Thirteen the beast is rising
The Frenchman did surmise
Through earthquakes and starvation
The warlord will arise
Terror, death, destruction
Pour from the eastern sands
But the truth of all predictions
Is always in your hands

No point asking when it is
No point asking who's to go
No point asking what's the game
No point asking who's to blame
'Coz if you're gonna die, you're gonna die
If you're gonna die
If you're gonna die

If you're gonna die, die with your boots on
If you're gonna try, stick around
Gonna cry, just move along
If you're gonna die, you're gonna die
You're gonna die, die with your boots on
If you're gonna try, stick around
Gonna cry, just move along
If you're gonna die, you're gonna die

They die with their boots on
Yes, they die yeah, yeah
They die, they die with their boots on
They die with your, with your, with your, with your
You die, hoh!

No point asking when it is
No point asking who's to go
No point asking what's the game
No point asking who's to blame
'Coz if you're gonna die
If you're gonna die

If you're gonna die, die with your boots on
If you're gonna try, try it again, stick around
Gonna cry, just move along
If you're gonna die, you're gonna die
You're gonna die, die with your boots on
If you're gonna try, stick around
Gonna cry, just move along
If you're gonna die
