Lightning (Bonus Track)
These four walls of Fort Worth Are closin' in on me My final meal is over An' they're gonna set me free
I can feel the fire's a burnin' As the devil guards my door I hit my knees in search of Jesus On a cold jail house floor
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 ride the lightning To my final judgment day
'Every life owes a debt' That's what the Bible says I owe mine to this state For shootin' that boy to death
A liquor store at ten He was reachin' for his gun Well, now his Momma sits there smilin' As the boss yells roll on one
And now I'm singin', 'Get me out of here' I see the preacher's eyes As my daughter cries Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com When they strap me in this chair
Lord, I hope she forgives me For leavin' her this way Tonight I ride the lightning To my final restin' place
A hungry blue eyed baby cryin' Made me rob that store An' 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 An' the order's gone through As the boss yells roll on two
Now I'm flyin' Up an' out of here I close my eyes an' 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 judgement day
These four walls of Fort Worth Are closin' in on me
