Lyrics
The broken and fallen damned old souls been sent to burn;
nowadays they've been callin'
tellin' me soon
gonna be my turn...
Head down,
walk with reason,
know that when the daylight dies,
gonna have to face my demons,
a life of sin and a life of lies.
[CHORUS]
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
[VERSE]
Gonna lay by the river, gonna rest my eyes.
Cuz I know this time tomorrow,
there ain't gonna be blue skies.
I walk a lonely mile, so many years I roamed.
I'm sinkin' slowly, so low,
Lord, won't ya take me home?
[CHORUS]
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
[VERSE]
Now I'm buried in a shallow grave
by the riverside.
Marked off with a granite stone
and the date I died.
Let down, for know good reason
chose to walk the way I did.
And now whatever I see
comin' up ahead, now...
[CHORUS]
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
The devil's gonna come when the sun go down.
