letra de i hung my head - blue highway

Loading...

early one morning with time to k!ll
i borrowed a rifle and sat on the hill
i saw a lone rider crossing the plain
i drew a bead on him to practice my aim

my brother’s rifle went off in my hand
a shot rang out across the land
the horse, it kept running, the rider was dead
i hung my head, i hung my head

i set off running to wake from my dream
my brother’s rifle went into the stream
i kept on running into the salt lands
and that’s where they found me
my head in my hands

the sheriff he asked me why had i run
then it came to me just what i had done
and all for no reason, just one piece of lead
i hung my head, i hung my head

here in the courthouse, the whole town is there
i see the judge high up in his chair
“explain to the courtroom
what went through your mind
we’ll ask the jury what verdict they find”

i said, “i felt the power of death over life
i orphaned his children, i widowed his wife
i beg their forgiveness, i wish i were dead”
i hung my head, i hung my head

early one morning with time to k!ll
i see the gallows high up on the hill
and off in the distance a trick of the brain
i see a lone rider crossing the plain

he’s come to fetch me, to see what they’ve done
we’ll ride together to kingdom come
i pray for god’s mercy, for soon i’ll be dead
i hung my head, i hung my head, i hung my head
