[00:03.480] Lightning
[00:03.670] .
[00:32.310] These four walls of Farnworth
[00:37.680] Are closin' in on me
[00:42.540] My final meal's over
[00:47.790] They're gonna set me free
[00:51.860] I can feel the fire's a burnin'
[00:56.990] As the devil guards my door
[01:01.750] I hit my knees in search of Jesus
[01:07.670] On a cold jailhouse floor
[01:10.730] .
[01:14.160] Lord, now I'm singin':
[01:19.650] "Get me out of here"
[01:25.640] I see the preacher's eyes
[01:27.880] As my daughter cries
[01:30.690] When they strap me in this chair
[01:34.690] Lord, I hope she forgives me
[01:41.650] For livin' my life this way
[01:47.570] Tonight I ride the lightning
[01:51.620] To my final judgment day
[01:55.420] .
[02:01.410] Every life owes a death
[02:05.910] That's what the Bible says
[02:11.150] I owe mine to this state
[02:15.630] For shootin' that boy to death
[02:22.180] A liquor store attendant
[02:25.420] He was reachin' for his gun
[02:30.630] Now his Momma sits there smilin'
[02:36.260] As the boss yells "Roll on one
[02:39.260] .
[02:43.470] And now I'm singin'
[02:48.410] "Get me out of here"
[02:54.150] I see the preacher's eyes
[02:56.710] As my daughter cries
[02:59.510] And they strap me in this chair
[03:03.640] I hope she forgives me
[03:09.810] For leavin' her this way
[03:15.620] Tonight I ride the lightning
[03:20.430] To my final restin' place
[03:25.360] .
[03:27.120] A hungry blue eyed baby cryin'
[03:30.800] Made me rob that store
[03:37.230] An' as that boy lay there dyin'
[03:41.100] I dropped my pistol on the floor
[03:46.210] Yeah, I'd take it all back but there's nothin' I can do
[03:51.630] They've covered my face
[03:54.440] An' the order's gone through
[03:57.580] As the boss yells "Roll on, two"
[04:00.200] .
[04:04.350] Now I'm flyin'
[04:09.220] Up an' out of here
[04:15.620] I close my eyes an' slowly rise
[04:21.050] Let my body leave this chair
[04:24.590] Lord I hope you forgive me
[04:30.770] For livin' my life this way
[04:36.630] Yeah, tonight I ride the lightning
[04:41.130] To my final restin' place
[04:45.870] .
[04:50.410] These four walls of Farnworth
[04:55.970] Are closin' in on me
