[00:06.790] It was just a little while past the sunset strip
[00:09.270] They found the girl's body in an open pit
[00:12.820] Her mouth was sewn shut, but her eyes were still wide
[00:15.950] Gazing through the fog to the other side
[00:19.110] They booked me on a whim and threw me deep in jail
[00:21.860] With no bail, sitting silent on a rusty pail
[00:24.820] Just gazing at the marks on the opposite wall
[00:27.880] Remembering the music of my lover's call
[00:37.030] So you make no mistake
[01:39.760] I know just what it takes
[01:41.270] To pull a man's soul back from heaven's gates
[01:43.880] I've been wandering in the dark about as long as sin
[01:46.870] But they say it's never too late to start again
[02:56.990] Oh when, oh when
[02:42.800] Will the spirit come a calling for my soul's sin
[02:47.880] Will the keys to the kingdom be mine again?
[01:13.720] It was dark as the grave, it was just about three
[01:16.510] When the warden with his key came to set me free
[01:19.300] They gave me five dollars and a secondhand suit
[01:22.170] A pistol and a hat and a worn out flute
[01:24.990] So I took a bus down to the Rio Grande
[01:27.830] And I shot a man down on the edge of town
[01:30.550] Then I stole me a horse and I rode it around
[01:33.870] Til the sheriff pulled me in and sat me down
[01:38.430] He said, you make no mistake
[01:53.000] Will the spirit come a calling for my soul to sin
[02:14.290] Well the sheriff let me go with a knife and a song
[02:16.820] So I took the first train up to Oregon
[02:19.910] And I killed the first man that I came upon
[02:22.850] Because the devil works quick, you know it don't take long
[02:27.740] Then I went to the river ford to take a swim
[02:30.120] You know that black river water is as black as sin
[02:32.950] And I washed myself clean as a newborn babe
[02:36.060] And then I picked up a rock for to sharpen my blade
[02:54.000] Will that black river water wash me clean again
[02:59.800] Will thee keys to the kingdom be mine again
