Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a pale horse comin' I'm gonna ride it I'll rise in the morning My fate decided I'm a dead man walkin' I'm a dead man walkin' [Verse 2] In St. James Parish I was born and christened Now I've got my story Mister no need for you to listen It's just a dead man talkin' [Bridge] Once, I had a job, I had a girl But between our dreams and actions Lies this world [Verse 3] In the deep forest Their blood and tears rushed over me All I could feel was the drugs and the shotgun And my fear up inside of me Like a dead man talkin' [Bridge 2] 'Neath a summer sky my eyes went black Sister, I won't ask for forgiveness My sins are all I have [Conclusion] Now the clouds above my prison Move slowly across the sky There's a new day dawnin' And my dreams are full tonight...
