Lyrics
The Devil Takes Me In
© 2009 Kevin Pearson / Kelly Kuhns
V1
He was in no hurry, climbing up those gallow stairs
Leg irons clankin off the wood, slowly he made his way
From the top he could see the cemetary
and one shallow empty grave
Chorus
He said preacher save your breath
cause I ain't afraid to die
If I'm goin anywhere after this
then there was a God trackin my sins
I'll pay what I owe, as soon as this trap door lets go
and I'll be expecting……..
the devil takes me in
V2
Preacher was unshaken, on that cold winter day
read from his bible, it was psalm 28
The hangman set his noose with just the right amount of play
as the Marshall procaims my last fate
Chorus
I said Marshall save your breath
cause I ain't afraid to die
If I'm goin anywhere after this
Then there was a God trackin my sins
I'll pay what I owe, as soon as this trap door lets go
and I'll be expecting……..
the devil takes me in
Bridge
Asked for my last words
I Looked over where the hole'd been dug
took one last look up at the sun
Said Preacher I'll tell the devil hello
cause you'll never get the chance
Marshall, I'll meet you at the gates of hell
Preacher hung a cross over the grave
Knowing that ther's some souls uou just can't save
He was unshaken, on that cold winter day
read from his bible, it was psalm 28
This song really catches one's attention. Lots of imagery, cool tune, like the guitars as well. Nice job! Keep on writing! ~strummergurl~
