Dead Man Walking

I went down to the river

Washed my sins away

Prayin', prayin', prayin', and prayin'

Prayin' for another day

I went down to that river

Washed my sins for free

The devil's on the other bank

Starin' back at me

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

Another nail in my coffin

Another nail for me

I gotta look pretty when I go down

Another nail in my coffin

Can't you spare one more?

I gotta look pretty when I'm

Knocking down heaven's door

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

Pour me another drink, bartender

Light my cigarette

You haven't seen a dead man talking

No, you haven't seen one yet

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man

I went down to that river

Washed my sins for free

No one seemed to notice as I stared

I went down to that river

I washed my sins away

I was thinkin' of you in that wedding gown

I went down to that water

Washed my sins away

World faded away as I went

Down, down, down down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man
