Bells

There used to be an angel watching over me

But she left me when I drank from river of blood

Down in Biloxi

I used to see the light in the dark souls around me

But I traded all my life for some lovin' and some gold

Down in Tennessee

And where we go, nobody knows

Those bells are ringing, ringing loud

Oh lord

We're going down, six underground

Those bells are ringing, ringing loud

Oh lord

They laid me down in a-Georgia

They said "We're gonna dig it for ya

You wasted all your life and never got it right

Now we'll teach you 'bout loss and pain"

But this was something that Johnny blue

Cannot ever take from you

You can take my gun and you can take my boots

But those hounds, they comin' for you, no

And where we go, nobody knows

Those bells are ringing, ringing loud

Oh lord

We're going down, six underground

Those bells are ringing, ringing loud

Oh lord

Oh lord, oh lord

Oh lord, oh lord

I used to see the light in the dark souls around me

Now when I come to the sky, I'm not askin' why

When the bell hits 12, I'll swing

And where we go, nobody knows

Those bells are ringing, ringing loud

Oh lord

We're going down, six underground

Those bells are ringing, ringing loud

Oh lord

Those bells are ringing, those bells are ringing, ringing loud

Oh lord
