Lightning

.

These four walls of Farnworth

Are closin' in on me

My final meal's over

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 jailhouse 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 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 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

And they strap me in this chair

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 restin' place

.

These four walls of Farnworth

Are closin' in on me
