I was a born again user
A heart tough like old roots
I held women like hammers
And I fought like a brute
And I was tired like the Bible
Always cutting men down
I was just like I wanted to be
I drank violence like water
At a tender young age
Took what I wanted
Sent men to their graves
Shot once for the gold
And twice for the fun
And I was just like I wanted to be
But is it too late
Too late for me
God tell me am I too far gone
Could I catch a ride like old Elijah
Be the least man in your kingdom come
I was caught by the lawman
For the things I had done
I didn't ask for no mercy
Didn't reach for my gun
I'm six steps from the gallows
And I'll swing when it's done
And that is just like I want it to be
I know every man dies
But I still don't know why
I lived like I was heir to the world
But if all that I get
Is six foot deep shoveled shit
I'll reap what I sowed for damn sure
But is it too late
Too late for me
God tell me am I too far gone
Could I catch a ride like old Elijah
Be the least man in your kingdom come
Could I catch a ride like old Elijah
Be the least man in your kingdom come
