I Left My Footprint In The Rock

  • Print

I Ieft my footprint in the rock
So that you would know
I roamed the Earth
Sixty-five million years ago.

I left my footprint on the ground
For human-beings to find
And know that dinosaurs lived
Long before mankind,

I left my footprint in the earth
So that my fierce roars
Would echo down the years
From the imprint of my claws.

I left my footprint in the rock
So that you’d gaze with awe
And know that I was once
A mighty dinosaur.
