[00:06.79]It was just a little while past the sunset strip
[00:09.27]They found the girl's body in an open pit
[00:12.82]Her mouth was sewn shut, but her eyes were still wide
[00:15.95]Gazing through the fog to the other side
[00:19.11]They booked me on a whim and threw me deep in jail
[00:21.86]With no bail, sitting silent on a rusty pail
[00:24.82]Just gazing at the marks on the opposite wall
[00:27.88]Remembering the music of my lover's call
[00:37.03]So you make no mistake
[00:38.58][01:39.76]I know just what it takes
[00:39.75][01:41.27]To pull a man's soul back from heaven's gates
[00:42.99][01:43.88]I've been wandering in the dark about as long as sin
[00:46.23][01:46.87]But they say it's never too late to start again
[00:49.11][00:55.19][01:50.20][01:56.18][02:39.63][02:45.19][02:51.54][02:56.99]Oh when, oh when
[00:52.31][02:42.80]Will the spirit come a calling for my soul's sin
[00:58.31][01:58.93][02:47.88]Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?
[01:13.72]It was dark as the grave, it was just about three
[01:16.51]When the warden with his key came to set me free
[01:19.30]They gave me five dollars and a secondhand suit
[01:22.17]A pistol and a hat and a worn out flute
[01:24.99]So I took a bus down to the Rio Grande
[01:27.83]And I shot a man down on the edge of town
[01:30.55]Then I stole me a horse and I rode it around
[01:33.87]Til the sheriff pulled me in and sat me down
[01:38.43]He said, you make no mistake
[01:53.00]Will the spirit come a calling for my soul to sin
[02:14.29]Well the sheriff let me go with a knife and a song
[02:16.82]So I took the first train up to Oregon
[02:19.91]And I killed the first man that I came upon
[02:22.85]Because the devil works quick, you know it don't take long
[02:27.74]Then I went to the river ford to take a swim
[02:30.12]You know that black river water is as black as sin
[02:32.95]And I washed myself clean as a newborn babe
[02:36.06]And then I picked up a rock for to sharpen my blade
[02:54.00]Will that black river water wash me clean again
[02:59.80]Will thee keys to the kingdom be mine again
