BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - Dead Man Walking lyrics

rate me

There's a pale horse coming

And I'm going to ride it

I'll rise in the morning

My fate decided

I'm a dead man walking

I'm a dead man walking

In St James' Parish I was born and christened

I've got my story Mister

Ain't no need for you to listen

It's just a dead man talking

Once I had a job I had a a girl

Between our dreams and actions lies this world

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'

'Neath the summer sky my eyes went black

Sister I won't ask for forgiveness

My sins are all I have

Now the clouds above my prisonMove slowly across the sky

There's a new day

coming and my dreams are full to-night
