Testi

[Verse 1]
These four walls of Farnworth
Are closin’ in on me
My final meal is over
They’re gonna set me free
I can feel the fires a burnin’
As the devil guards my door
I hit my knees in search of Jesus
On a cold jailhouse floor
[Verse 2]
Lord, now I’m singin’
Get me out of here
I see the preacher’s eyes
As my daughter cries
When they strap me in this chair
Lord, I hope she forgives me
For livin’ my life this way
Tonight I’ll ride the lightning
To my final judgment day
[Verse 3]
Every life owes a death
That’s what the Bible says
I owe mine to this state
For shootin’ that boy to death
A liquor store attendant
He was reachin’ for his gun
Now his mama sits there smilin’
As the boss yells, “Roll on one”
[Verse 4]
And now I’m singin’
Get me out of here
I see the preacher’s eyes
As my daughter cries
When they strap me in this chair
Lord, I hope she forgives me
For leavin’ her this way
Tonight I’ll ride the lightning
To my final resting place
[Verse 5]
A hungry blue-eyed baby cryin’
Made me rob that store
And as that boy lay there dyin’
I dropped my pistol on the floor
Yeah, I’d take it all back
But there’s nothin’ I can do
They’ve covered my face
And the order’s gone through
As the boss yells, “Roll on two”
[Verse 6]
Now I’m flyin’ up and out of here
I close my eyes and slowly rise
Let my body leave this chair
Lord, I hope you forgive me
For livin’ my life this way
Yeah, tonight I ride the lightning
To my final resting place
[Verse 7]
These four walls of Farnworth
Are closin’ in on me
