Said lord, save my soul

Ain't got no love, I'm a dollar short

I ain't got no place to go

Don't you know that down in Jericho

The ocean's dry

No water here to wash me of my sins

I spoke to the preacher, said I was a sinnin' man

Gonna string me up come the summertime for the blood on my hands

Then I took my heart to the gypsy, gonna find me another cure

'Cause when my head goes to Jericho you know my days are done for sure
