1
These four walls of Farnworth
2
Are closin' in on me
3
My final meal's over
4
They're gonna set me free
5
I can feel the fire's a burnin'
6
As the devil guards my door
7
I hit my knees in search of Jesus
8
On a cold jailhouse floor
9
Lord, now I'm singin'
10
"Get me out of here"
11
I see the preacher's eyes
12
As my daughter cries
13
When they strap me in this chair
14
Lord, I hope she forgives me
15
For livin' my life this way
16
Tonight I ride the lightning
17
To my final judgment day
18
Every life owes a death
19
That's what the Bible says
20
I owe mine to this state
21
For shootin' that boy to death
22
A liquor store attendant
23
He was reachin' for his gun
24
Now his Momma sits there smilin'
25
As the boss yells "Roll on one
26
Now I'm singin'
27
"Get me out of here"
28
I see the preacher's eyes
29
As my daughter cries
30
And they strap me in this chair
31
I hope she forgives me
32
For leavin' her this way
33
Tonight I ride the lightning
34
To my final restin' place
35
A hungry blue eyed baby cryin'
36
Made me rob that store
37
An' as that boy lay there dyin'
38
I dropped my pistol on the floor
39
Yeah, I'd take it all back but there's nothin' I can do
40
They've covered my face
41
An' the order's gone through
42
As the boss yells "Roll on, two"
43
Now I'm flyin'
44
Up an' out of here
45
I close my eyes an' slowly rise
46
Let my body leave this chair
47
Lord I hope you forgive me
48
For livin' my life this way
49
Yeah, tonight I ride the lightning
50
To my final restin' place
51
These four walls of Farnworth
52
Are closin' in on me
