Lie down, lie down
they say the devil’s comin round
all wicked men are gonna hang
it’s the law of the land
there’s a bounty on my head
and I hear him comin for me
I was drunk, it was dark
when I stabbed you right through the heart
I felt the wind, I felt the rain
I felt a chill down in my veins
There was black there was red
a feeling of dread
in those tears that were shed
No one ever knows
what darkness can hold
there ain’t no salvation in regret
Ref:
Lie down lie down
they say the devil’s comin round
pray that he doesn’t come for me
he’s the law of the land
there’s a sixgun in his hand
Lord, will I ever be set free?
I was born, a bastard son
like my mom, I had no love
my troubled life is all I had
only shame, pain and regret
There was black there was red
a feeling of dread
now I face the law of the land
In black and white
no question that night
there ain’t no raisin’ the dead
Ref:
Lie down lie down
they say the devil’s comin round
all wicked men are gonna hang
it’s the law of the land
there’s a bounty on my head
and I hear him comin for me
