Lyrics
Dead and Gone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Devil came in
Sat right down
Watched me wade in the water
Then he watched me drown
The things he had to say
He's right and I Will pay
(I fear) this ol' world Won't hold me another day.
Soon I'll be gone
If Thats what he wants
It won't be long
When the morning comes
I'll be dead and gone
When the morning comes
I'll be dead and gone
When the morning comes
I'll be dead and gone
There's sin's sold to my name
I hold my head high to the blame
Makes no odds to argue
If the outcomes still the same
I'm not rightous or mislead
I'll be burned for what I did
But the healing's worth the hurt
If the hurt is not misread
