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
