Eric Bibb - Death Row Blues lyrics
[Eric Bibb - Death Row Blues lyrics]
Livin' high up on the hill
Coming down to shanty town just for a thrill
I might be a prisoner waitin' on death row
No matter who you are
When your time has come you gotta go
Feelin' mighty lonesome
Here behind these bars countin' off the days
Countin' my scars
I can't tell the future but this I know
When my countin' days are over i gotta go
You came to the world
They gave you a silver spoon
I was born in a shotgun shack
On the last day of June
I'm about to leave this world, my friend
Without much to show
But, I'm so glad I gotta sing my song
Before I go
You're gonna remember my song when I go
