It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
And Mama hollered out the back door "y'all remember to wipe your feet"
And then she said "I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge"
"Today Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
In my world
It's heaven on earth when you're close to me
I could see
That moment of truth when you spoke to me
In my world
It's never too late we can both be free
In my world
It's heaven on earth when you're near.
World was on fire, no one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you...
I used to think of myself as a soldier
Holding his own against impossible odds
Badly outnumbered and caught in a crossfire
Of devils and gods
All I ever wanted to be is free
All I ever wanted to see
Was within my eyes to see
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me
These days
Are just like you and me.
I tried to be the perfect soldier
I tried to be what everyone thought was expected
Somehow I was selected
My hands were steady, my aim was true
But somewhere in my heart I knew
That I lacked the will
I just couldn't shoot to kill
And still she treats me like a human
She says she'll still be there
I don't quite understand it
She's been too fair
But somehow she cares
Well I am death come to take the soul
Leave the body and leave it cold.
To draw the flesh off of the frame.
Dirt and worm both have a claim.
O Death
O Death
Wont you spare me over for another year.
He lay face down in the desert sand
Clutching a six gun in his hand
Shot from behind I thought he was dead
But under his heart was an ounce of lead
But a spark still burned so I used my knife
And late that night I saved the life
Of Ringo
